Octavo. 82pp. Determined to "preserve worthwhile skills and artifacts from the past," Iris Nevins focused on the art of marbling. "Many wonderful intricate patterns fell out of use after about 1870," and Spanish marbling is among the most difficult. Each pattern is separately explained, with space for the amateur marbler's notes on their attempts to follow the directions. With eighteenth-century Spanish type ornaments in red. In beautiful Spanish-marbled boards backed in cloth, with leather spine label. A hint of fading to spine, else near fine. Prospectus and original sales receipt laid in. Previous owner's bookplate laid in. (Bird & Bull Bibliography A49).
