Description

This is a folio-size album of furniture designs and decorative details, some original and some derived from other sources. Many were custom made for specific clients and fabricated by specified cabinet makers. Besides sketches (some in color) and annotations, there are some photographs and clippings. The album appears to date from the earliest years of the firm's practice when they were affiliated with George Moore. It is indexed by client's name.
