Softcover. Condition: Good. First edition. A few slight exterior marks and scuffs. Clean and unmarked contents mostly. Ownership inscription on first inside page. Sound overall. Publisher's note: "This is the third in a series of majot exhibitions held at Temple Newsam which set out to explore neglected aspects of country house interiors. The first was devoted to historic paper hangings, the second investigated the theme of chimney furniture and garnitures, while the present show concentrates on floors - their materials, decoration and coverings. Published research on the subject surprisingly meagre and scattered so we trust that this scholarly well-illustrated catalogue will become a useful source of reference. Field work and research have turned up copious documentary evidence and much previously unrecorded material." -- Foreward. Shipped Weight: Under 1 kilo.
