Later calf backed marbled paper covered boards flat spine ruled and lettered in gilt.<br/> <br/>A rarely encountered pattern book or trade catalogue of 18th century English furniture hardware including drawer pulls keyholes hinges locks castors bolts and more.<br/> <br/>By 1770 over thirty different brass foundries operated in Birmingham England making it the epicenter of furniture hardware design in the last quarter of the 18th century. At roughly the same period trade catalogues like the present began to be issued by both furniture and hardware makers alike. In all over 500 designs are shown on the 113 consecutively numbered plates from rather simple hinges to incredibly ornate pulls. Although no engravers' names are identified it has been suggested that the foundries themselves produced such plates utilizing the talents of their own craftsmen who by their very occupation would have been highly skilled at etching on metal.
