The print collector : an introduction to the knowledge necessary for forming a collection of ancient prints
The print collector is an 1885 New York guide by Joseph Maberly, edited by Robert Hoe and T. H. Fielding, published by Frederick Keppel for beginners forming collections of early engravings. Its pictures are small black-and-white line illustrations of workshops, studies and collectors' rooms, with plain outlines and simple shading that a designer could use for period interiors or vintage scenes of printmaking and connoisseurship.
