Catalog of ladies' desks.
A trade catalogue of ladies' writing desks issued by the Cron-Kills Co. of Piqua, Ohio, in 1905 for furniture dealers and buyers. The pictures are plain line-and-halftone drawings of slant-front desks on cabriole legs, showing carved crests, drop-front fittings and oak grain. A designer could draw on the scrolled crests, curved legs and simple pulls for early twentieth-century furniture styling.
