How to Paint Signs and Show Cards by E. C. Matthews
The book is in excellent condition for its age and printed on high quality smooth paper except for the end papers, which have tanned/foxed with time. It contains a wealth of information on graphic design and numerous delightful illustrations (samples in the photos). The binding is completely sound, lower cover edges show light shelf wear, the page edges tinted blue to match the covers. I confess to wanting to keep it myself.
