Item description from seller

Light brown cloth over boards (7 3/4 in. x 5 1/4 in.) with black lettering and graphic of wagon labeled "Painter" to front with black design to top and bottom of board, and gilt lettering to spine.Floral endpapers on light wallpaper-like stock. Shelfwear and rubbing to extremities, and a spine lean. Solidly bound. A thorough reference work, now especially appropriate for archival restorers, collectors, craftspeople, and artisans employed by historical museums, ".The painting of vehicles, although differing in many respects, according to their quality or value, is virtually the same, and I have departed from the beaten track of writers inmagazines, and chosen for my text A WAGON, fromthe fact that the field was a larger one, and in describing how that vehicle could be painted, lettered, striped and ornamented, I could at the same time give all the information necessary for the painting of a first-class carriage or sleigh." (from author's Preface).
