Arthur H. Lee & Sons Ltd · 1921 · New York : Arthur H. Lee & Sons Ltd. · 16 pictures

A 1921 trade catalogue issued by Arthur H. Lee & Sons Ltd, published in New York and aimed at textile buyers, showing printed and woven fabrics as reproductions. The pictures are dense all-over patterns on dark grounds, with paisley-like motifs, flowering branches, birds and small figures, which a designer could use for repeat pattern, damask-style surface design, or historical textile reference.
