About This Item
[no place], 1900. Very good. Nine albumen prints, all mounted to cardstock, each measuring just shy of 4" x 5.5". Cards all gently curled, and some smudging to a few of the images, but all contents are legible; generally very good. The verso of each mount contains detailed handwritten prices for each item, along with variant accessories (drawer pulls, knobs, etc.). Though undated, the photographic process and style of furniture would suggest the tail end of the Victorian era, as early as 1875, and no later than 1900. One of the images is a nicely executed composite image of nine different chairs, mostly rockers, and a few which appear to be for children. The other images depict bedroom sets, drop-leaf tables, side tables, and dressers. Though the manufacturer or sales agent is not identified, we presume it to be American, probably from the Northeast or Midwest. A great example of furniture sales material from an era of sophistication in the American market.

About Cleveland Book Company
We are proud members of the ABAA.
As a small, independent bookseller in Cleveland, Ohio, I deal in general used, rare, and antiquarian books, autographs, manuscripts, pamphlets, and personal and family papers in all subjects. My family has been in the antiquarian book business since 1971. Are you moving, downsizing, or doing some spring cleaning? Did you inherit or otherwise come into some old books? Or, maybe you've collected modern novels from the last thirty or fifty years. No matter what kinds of books you have, we'd love to take a look at them! We travel throughout Ohio, western Pennsylvania and New York, southern Michigan, and eastern Indiana, and will travel farther in some cases to look at whole libraries or even just a few particularly interesting books. Give us a call at (216) 352-3940 and we can talk more about the kinds of books you have.
