Larkin paints : factory prices, 1920
A 1920 mail-order catalogue of paints issued by the Larkin Co. of Buffalo, New York, aimed at householders and farmers buying direct at factory prices. Its pictures show a painter brushing a barn wall, a staircase with a tall case clock, a shed with a shingled roof and rough stone-textured wall, and paint being poured into drums on a factory floor, giving a designer period decorative line art and a clear record of early twentieth-century rural and domestic life.
