Perforated Metallic Graining Tools
A trade catalogue of perforated metallic graining tools issued by Wm. J. Bregenzer in 1890, aimed at painters and decorators who imitated wood grain on surfaces. The pictures are rows of printed wood-grain samples with numbered plates, showing growth or heart figures, oak lights, and walnut and maple patterns in dense black-and-white linework that a designer could use as a reference for faux finishes or wood texture.
