Light foxing throughout. With faults a good sound copy. Second edition originally published in New York by H. Wallis in 1823 which included information on British practices. In the self-published edition of 1834 Partridge remove much of this material and focused more on the extraction of colors from wood the chemistry of scouring and dyeing and color preparation. The first 40 pages of the book describe in detail the methods and materials used in scouring raw wool and cotton to ensure that all oils and natural elements are removed and cleansed out. The next 100 pages are devoted to dyes. Partridge discusses in detail the which natural materials produce colors pigments how to make the extractions and finally how to mix the extracts with solvents and oils to create a color that will fix when applied to textile material. The final part of the book has to do with preparing silks and cotton and some variations on the techniques for producing and fixing colors. A notice on the verso of the title-page reads "The author informs Manufacturers and Dyers that he is at all times willing and desirous to give any information and recipes that may be in his power respecting the manufacture of woollens and dying free of cost." In addition to writing and publishing his Practical Treatise William Partridge was a textile dyer and seller who also built a business in NYC that imported and extracted pigments from wood sources which was to become one of the largest of its kind on the East Coast before the Civil War.

48851936-65; Wigmore Street and Hampstead London. The collection is in good condition with very occasional minor creasing staining and loss. Majority of items quarto. Milne was a leading Fellow of the Society a Chairman of Council in 1959-61 and Vice-President. The collection provides a valuable insight into the day-to-day workings of the Society from the first letter discussing the R.I.B.A. and whether the Society might set up 'a somewhat similar organisation with similar prestige could be built up for industrial artists' to the last letter commending G. C. H. Chubb on his inaugural address as Chairman of Council 'I hope you will be able to interest industrial Companies etc to associate themselves with the R.S.A.'. Most items are signed 'Oswald P. Milne'. An important aspect of the correspondence concerns repairs and redecorations to the Society's premises at 19 John Street Adelphi which Milne appears to have superintended and for which it seems from a letter of 3 January 1940 he was made a presentation by the Society. In these letters he liases with J. W. Falkner & Sons Ltd acting on the Society's instructions and discussing the builders' quotations and other practical aspects of the work. Milne also gives his opinion 1 April 1942 on the competing claims of Messrs Vanstone and Veale and Sanders for acting as Surveyors on the work. Also present is an initialed carbon of the letter 19 May 1942 to which this letter responds from the Acting Secretary discussing the 'thorny problem'. 'A good deal of unpleasantness is being caused . It would appear that Vanstones do not propose to give way in the matter and Veale and Sanders do not propose to admit the claim.' 1936-65; Wigmore Street and Hampstead, London. unknown
