The book of hobbies; or, A guide to happiness
The Book of Hobbies; or, A Guide to Happiness is a 1924 hobby and leisure guide by Charles William Taussig, published in New York by Minton, Balch & Company for general readers interested in amusements and collecting. Its pictures are pen-and-ink line drawings and small woodcut-style spot illustrations of toys, a chest, furniture and a rocking horse, drawn with clean outlines and simple hatching that suggest how a designer might build quick, legible vignettes for hobby or craft themes.
