The pewter collector : a guide to English pewter with some reference to foreign work

Massé, H. J. L. J. (Henri Jean Louis Joseph), b. 1860 · 1921 · London : Herbert Jenkins · 62 pictures

A collector's handbook on English pewter, written by H. J. L. J. Massé and published in London by Herbert Jenkins in 1921 for antiquarians and dealers. Halftone photographs isolate single vessels against plain grounds — lidded flagons, tankards, baluster measures — giving clear silhouettes, thumbpiece and handle profiles, and touchmarks usable as object outlines or texture studies.
