60 pages, illustrations (some colour); 21 cm. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Age toning. Richly illustrated with colour plates of the paintings & furnishings. *** "In 1891, Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild acquired a collection of printed paper ephemera to do with trade. The collection contains over 700 trade cards (early shop advertisements) and related items, mostly from France, but also from Germany and elsewhere on the continent. They date from early seventeenth to early nineteenth centuries and are for suppliers as diverse as hat-makers, stationers, goldsmiths, print-sellers and confectioners. All cards have been transcribed in their original language and translated into English. This catalogue is the result of a Leverhulme funded research project titled 'Selling Consumption in the 18th century', a joint venture between the University of Warwick and Waddesdon Manor." - Publisher. Size: 8vo.
