Tall 8vo., 268 x 174 mm, bound in publisher's dark gray cloth, title gilt on spine and front cover. Burlington, Vermont: Owl Press, 1900. First Edition. A turn-of-the-century manual much in the manner of Earhart, with chapters on Color, Harmony, Color Modified, Printing, Inks, Rollers, Makeready, Job Work, and Three-Color Process Work.
