The romance of lace, its historical background, its present manufacture, its varieties and uses
A 1920 promotional history of lace issued in Chicago by Zion Lace Industries, owned by Marshall Field & Company, for retail buyers and general readers. Pen-and-ink drawings show workers at Levers lace machines, hand-lacemakers, and bales of raw material, drawn in loose hatching on tinted grounds; useful for figures-at-machines vignettes and textile-mill silhouettes.
