AMERICAN ART AND BOOK PRODUCTION IN THE SERVICE OF COMMERCE: A MODEST NURSERYMAN'S FRUIT FLOWER AND TREE SALES CATALOGUE PRINTED IN VIBRANT COLORS. SEED CATALOGUES SUCH AS THIS ONE WERE HEAVILY USED AS VEHICLES OF SALE BY TRAVELING SEED PEDDLERS THROUGHOUT SMALL TOWN AMERICA. <br /> <br /> "Nurserymen's plates were an American innovation. . In design and coloring these plates were more akin to folk painting than to the commercial art of their time" Charles von Ravenswaay "Drawn and Colored from Nature" in Antiques Magazine March 1983 pp. 594-599. <br /> <br /> Vintage Nurseryman's Guides provide a "floracopia" of American chromolithography at its apogee. All the plates have descriptive text on the versos giving name of the plant / tree / fruit useful information about color fragrance production preferred growing season and other particulars such as taste in the case of fruit. Our catalogue was issued by the William C. Moore & Co. of Newark New York State which evidently offered a wide selection indeed. Unusually the text on our wrappers bears a curious attestation by the Arcadia National Bank proclaiming that "in our opinion the Nursery is a reliable and responsible concern with ample capital to carry on its large operations." The President and General Manager of the firm was at that time Wilson M. Gould whose name appears as such in the Dec. 5 1912 issue of Florists' Review vol. 31 p. 82. <br /> <br /> Most fruit seed catalogues are undated because they were literally assembled according to which seeds were or would be in stock as here. The most "recent" plate in the present nurseryman's guide is dated 1904. United Litho. and Printing Co. [and Vredenberg Co.] unknown
