Catalogue of Roberts & Sons' annual collection of oil paintings and water color drawings [microform] : from the studios of eminent British artists, together with a few examples of the modern Dutch School, to be sold at auction, without reserve, October 11th and 12th 1898, at 2:30 o' clock P.M. at Roberts & Sons' Art Gallery, 79 King Street West, Toronto
An 1898 auction catalogue issued in Toronto by W. Dickson for Roberts & Sons' Art Gallery at 79 King Street West, offering British oil paintings and water colour drawings to buyers and collectors. The first picture is the cover title page with stacked black-letter display type and a centred auction notice, while the second is a photograph of a gallery interior with framed paintings hung on tiered walls, printed sideways on the page. A designer might take the decorative mix of blackletter and small caps from the title page, or the dense hanging arrangement of framed pictures from the interior view.
