About this Item

8 pp. plus 19 inserts (6 of them full- colour), including a glossy page on Skinner Brothers of Sherbrooke, Quebec, "jewellers since 1859," where one could presumably buy the Spode china and patterns celebrated in the publications. The 8 pp. booklet is saddle-stitched into a folder with a pocket at the inside back cover to hold the inserts. Patterns featured include Tree of Life (though we would probably describe it as India Tree today), Billingsley Rose, Florence, Cowslip, Fairy Dell, Pink Tower, Buttercup, Gainsborough, Flower Embossed and Rose Briar. Folder is lightly edgeworn with a 1/2" dog-ear at lower front. A rare and fascinating artifact for ceramic collectors and historians. Seller Inventory # 003638
