First edition. Paper covers a bit dented and worn but complete. Recipes and tricks for 'High Class Decorative Painting'. According to the author: 'You can search round the whole world but cannot beat the information which i place before you.' There's a whole section on paint recipes for different colours such as 'Leaf Bud' and 'Mouse' and 'Electric Blue'. Bob Denver (Gilligan of Gilligan's Island) had a mansion in Hollywood painted electric blue. He must have had a copy of this book.
