American Walpole Society Fall Meeting 1964 New York City Prospectus
- - -
DESCRIPTION & CONDITION:
A nicely-printed folder announcing the Fall 1964 meeting of the Walpole Society and outlining the events by day. Founded in 1910, The Walpole Society has been dedicated to the appreciation and scholarship of American arts for over 85 years. Its initial membership included S.P. Avery, Edwin Atlee Barber, Francis H. Bigelow, Dwight Blaney, H. Eugene Bolles, Thomas B. Clarke, George Munson Curtis, Henry Wood Erving, Harry H. Flagler, Hollis French, Henry W. Kent, Luke Vincent Lockwood, Albert H. Pitkin, Charles Hitchcock Tyler, and Theodore S. Woolsey. Books by its members, both past and present, rank among the most important and long-lasting works in the fields of American decorative arts scholarship. The private publications of the Society are less well-known. In its early years the Society published several Glossaries of the decorative arts, and its publication of Hollis French\'s book on American silver was the first study of the marks of American silversmiths. Since 1926 the Society has also published a yearly Note Book, containing articles and essays by members, as well as accounts of meetings at a variety of interesting and historic places. Published by fine presses on rag paper and in extremely limited editions, these Note Books are extremely difficult to come by. Certain essays have also been issued as offprints. We are pleased to offer a selection of Walpole Society publications.
Single sheet folded once. 6”x9”. Fine condition.
