The monograph was initially issued to mark the U.S. operation's 25th anniversary in 1912 when they moved to a massive 12-story headquarters in New York where the iconic Silk Clock was installed in 1926. Although the book made it to press in 1913 the foreword indicates The first compilation was hurried however and lacking in many essentials" especially "data and illustrations from abroad 11. This edition has been embellished with all the visual bells and whistles Robert Schwarzenbach desired incorporating an uncommonly broad range of printing techniques from photogravure to offset lithography. Copious in-text portraits vignettes and ornaments are peppered with 35 total leaves of platesmany printed both sides and on varying paper stocks: 2 photogravure plates 3 full color plates 25 leaves with 39 pages of halftone photographs many two-tone one folding plate and 4 leaves with 7 pages with striking color charts reminiscent of DuBois' data graphics. The book details the company's history and global operations with a hefty portion devoted to its American facilities and operations. While largely celebrating its present state the text notably goes into detail about the political and economic conditions: "The year 1896 was in other respects disappointing. The free silver campaign of William Jennings Bryan demoralized business. It was during this periodwhich followed the enactment of the Dingley Tariffthat imports steadily fell off and the silk industry of the United States experienced almost monumental growth" 89. It also addresses advances in machinery the management of workers where those beautiful data graphics come in and the company's civic responsibilities. A lavish and thoughtful production that humbles modern luxury brand monographs.
