The practical book of early American arts and crafts
A 1916 survey of American decorative arts by Harold Donaldson Eberlein, Abbot McClure and Mabel Foster Bainbridge, issued by J.B. Lippincott in Philadelphia and London for collectors and antiquarians. Halftone photographs of pewter porringers, painted furniture and stencilled walls sit beside clean line drawings of tulip and leaf motifs on slipware mugs and bowls, giving usable folk ornament, repeating border strips and silhouetted object profiles.
