Item description from seller

Library stamps/marks/labels/pocket peel, both hinges started, frayed spine head, light edgewear, otherwise light wear. Solid hardcover.; "Books on paper and cardboard work for public schools have appeared from time to time and are in many cases serving a good purpose. There still remains, however, one field which does not seem to be adequately handled and to which this book attempts to make a contribution. That is: - a course in cutting, measuring, folding, pasting, gluing, sewing, punching, tying, and decorating a variet of paper materials, with a definitely organized series of problems in the making of books, boxes, card mounts, and envelopes.The problems selected are only of these four kinds, because these seem to be the most thoroly suited to the materials from the worker's standpoint and because they furnish so rich an opportunity for varied manipulations, and such an attractive basis for applied design in the lower grades." - Introduction. Book has Appendix: "Specimens of papers suitable for primary construction mounted and described for convenient reference" with all twenty-four paper samples attached. First Edition of this interesting turn-of-the-century manual arts education guide designed for teaching elementary school students. ; Ex-Library.
