Boston: Prang Educational Company, 1894. Hardcover. Very good. First thus, 1894. Cloth 8vo, 176pp. Very Good with light soil, rubbing to the corners and spine ends, a few instances of discoloration or soil from use. Previous owner's signature to the front flyleaf, else clean and unmarked.
The book popular art education exercises modeled after the Froebel gifts, including paper folding and cutting, stick laying, blackboard drawing, and clay modeling. It also offers a thorough course for teaching color that incorporates visual, tactile, and language exercises.
Despite espousing the superiority of art education that did not rely on rote copying exercises, Turner accepted the job of producing a new version of White's Course in Art Instruction for the American Book Company in 1891, along with four young art educators--Nathanial Berry, Elizabeth Perry, Jessie Prince--who referred to themselves as "the syndicate." Bailey was a state agent with influence over art education in Massachusetts, where a years-running competition with Prang came to a head when Prang bought out the American Book Company, acquiring evidence of Bailey's involvement in the production and coercing a more cooperative climate for Prang's books in MA schools. See "Drawing Book Wars" by Mary Ann Stankiewicz. Visual Arts Research, Vol. 12, No. 2 (Fall 1986), pp. 59-72

A signed copy. This is a new approach to the craft of Honiton lace, presenting 40 new patterns in a visual format - through diagrams, prickings and photographs, explaining how to use the book in 5 languages. Every pattern has also been illustrated with a photograph of the "right" and "wrong" side of the lace, avoiding the usual need to make a mental reversal. There are also diagrams of the working order, the numbering of pairs and pricking. The patterns include both flat and raised work, with every design displayed together on a single spread. The book is aimed at the lace maker with a sound basic knowledge of the craft. Yusai Fukuyama has taught and written on many aspects of lace and is a former student of Elsie Luxton who was awarded MBE in 1984 for her services to lace making. They have also written "Royal…
