Three vols. Folio. 9.5 x 14 in. [216; 200; 216 pp (unpaginated).]. With over 10,000 individual textile samples, sized from 1/2 in. x 1 in. up to 8 x 13 in., many of them on assorted printed cotton fabrics, some laces samples, others Marquisette tissue fabrics, and others embroidered satin printed silks. Quarter-green suede calf over green marbled boards, printed label on front pastedown, labels on front covers of all volumes in original ink manuscript (wear, rubbing, splitting to hinges, scuffing & lifting to the marbled boards, occasional soiling, offsetting from old glue adhering some of the cotton samples, occasional interior soiling & tidemark to vol. III), still a G- set, w/ ownership inscriptions of Emile Schaefflin in all vols., and ownership stamps of Schaeffer Impression S.A. within the leaves of Vol. I, which was a cotton printing, dyeing & bleaching firm formed in 1968 from Schaeffer Manutention in Haut-Rhin near Mulhouse in Alsace. Three extraordinary factory sample catalogues of French printed textiles including Organdy, the sheerest and crispest cotton cloth, and Jaconet cotton fabrics, often finished as cambric, lawn, voile, providing a splendid visual and tactile archive of French design under the Second Empire of Napoleon III. Mulhouse, Alsace near the Swiss and German borders was the home of a number of textile manufacturers, and printers who developed processes to emulate the printed cotton textiles produced in India and Kashmir beginning in the 18th Century. In the 19th Century with printing presses using block rollers, industrial processes, and later in the 1860's, chemical dyes, there was a vast scaling up of production to meet demand for rich looking inexpensive patterned cottons. These wildly popular Indian calico designs were in constant demand during the 18th Century, and in the 19th Century saw a tremendous expansion of roll or block printing onto lightweight coated textiles such as Organdy and Jaconet. These factory samples include floral motifs, geometric borders, paisley patterns, calicos, botanical themes, and more spread across the printed cotton swatches, creating sensational explosions of colour. Vivid jewel tones, pastels, delicate shadings, all emerged with more durability, and vividness as chemical dyes revolutionized textile printing. Under Napoleon III, Paris fashions coupled with the fast-growing textile industry in Alsace and other regions, served as an important economic and intellectual driver with an emphasis on the importance of women's clothing, and women's fashion sense, with designers such as Schlaefflin and others continually producing colourful and desirable designs. Schlaefflin (fl. 1860-1875) appears in Alsace municipal records as a textile designer, but we were unable to locate him specifically in Mulhouse, and he does not appear in the 1877 Guide du Voyageur a Mulhouse, or other business and textile trade publications. The printer Abraham Haas (1829-1867) was the son of a textiles merchant who had developed his version of these blank sample books, and his brother Aaron Haas took over the business upon his death.

Five vols. Thick Royal Folios, each of them 13 x 18 x 3.5 in. [28], 148; 220; 202; [28], 202; 202 pp.With over 2300 original cloth samples mounted by the company on stiff folio leaves, including every type of fabrics the company bought and sold over nearly 15 years, including satins, laces, irridescent fabrics, rayon, rayon blends, nylons, percale, wool blends, Velveray, Hollywood Chintz, ruff-lin cotton, Organdys, nylon viscose, novelty pictorials, and many others. The samples which range in size from 2.75 x 2 in. to 10 x 17 in. express the whole spectrum of colours, most of them annotated in pencil or pen in the margins. Some leaves have evidence of removed samples as the company had either discontinued that fabric, or it was no longer available. The five volumes are uniformly bound in gray, and gray-green coloured buckram, with dates in black in ink on spines, 2 of the volumes with "Experimental" annotation in ink on covers, section at front of each volume w/ thumb tabs, many with samples laid-in (some wear & rubbing, toning to the leaves, occasional fraying, and creasing to samples), still an incredible archive, w/ former ownership markings on endpapers. An outstanding and historically important archive of manuscript fabric sample catalogues recording the explosion of mid-century modern fabrics and other popular patterns through World War II up until the late 1950s, bought and sold by Alfred Grant, Inc. This dress goods firm founded in the 1930s was one of the largest New York textiles wholesalers in New York until the 1960s, drawing from the burgeoning American textile mills, as well as Italy, and other European suppliers. This marvelous collection offers an especially crucial range of pictorial, printed, and metallic textiles from the period. The patterns range from Alice in Wonderland prints produced by Wilshire Print Designers in 1943; Dancing Cactus patterns by Jeri Prints in 1946 offering a wonderful look at 1940s western kitsch; assorted Churchill Downs Prints; ruff-lin fabrics from numerous American mills; Hollywood Chintz patterns from 1946 (first made popular in the 1930s); rayon blends in Amazon iridescent dyes; Western Saddle checks and Saddle stripes; Her Ladyship telesheen colours; a wonderful range of Gibson Girl stripes popular in the 1950s and evoking the famed illustrator, and many others. In addition, there 100s of samples with geometric and abstract patterns evoking the mid-century feel, complete with a dynamic-hued palette, emphasizing space-age colours of bright red and gold, blue and green, Scandinavian-inspired harvest gold, avocado green, soft pastels of pink, light yellow, blue & turquoise. Of particular interest are the incredible range of fabric samples showing the growth of nylon, rayon, Velveray sheer cottons, Velveray sheer metallics, Cotton acetate blends, novelty fabrics by Bamberg Nylon Viscosse, P. Krause & Son embossed nylons, and so much more. The Korean War, and domestic post-World War II demand sent American cloth production to booming levels in the early 1950s, and out of this textile revolution, came new colourful organic textile designs in bold barkcloth patterns, simple gingham prints, popular nostalgic kitchen prints with mid-century colours, and more. These samples include textiles used in women's sun dresses, children's clothes, men's suits, fashions, as well as draperies, upholstery, table linens, and almost every other application for textiles in mid-century America. These sample catalogues also offer a number of European designer fabrics produced during the same period, and then emulated by American Mills such as Brighton Mills, Passaic, NJ, J.B. Sterns Mills; Iselin-Jefferson Co., Borden Mills, Inc. (later became Dan River), Howard Arthur Mills, Millville, William Whitman Co., Nashawena Mills, Greenwood Mills at the Harris Plant, Aragon Baldwin Mills, Whitmire Plant in South Carolina, and many more. These catalogues spanning nearly two decades offer important artifacts recording the strong colours, striking patterns, and cultural tastes of the mid-century modern era, including experimental fabrics which were never placed into the market.
