Sign, carriage and decorative painting : including full instructions in fresco painting, a practical treatise on car painting, and much valuable practical information
A trade manual by Jesse Haney on sign, carriage, and fresco painting, issued by Excelsior Publishing House in New York in 1897 for working painters and shop apprentices. The plates are line diagrams of ceiling and panel layouts—nested rectangles, ovals, and arched fields with rosette centres—each zone lettered with its intended colour, usable as schematic frames and colour-key layouts.
