Antique DMC Library – Encyclopedia of Needlework By Thérèse de Dillmont
This fabulous, olive green coloured hardback book, with its blocked black coloured titles, both on the spine and front board, is in very good condition for its age. Normal wear as expected and slight discolouration and marks. No dust jacket. Pencil name on first page, probably the original owner's name. The Encyclopedia of Needlework is published in English, French, German and Italian. Number of copies issued until now: 750,000. Published by D.M.C. Library Mulhouse from around 1886. This specific book has no published date, so I have put in 1900 as an estimate of the time this book was published. The author and editor Theresa de Dillmont (10th October 1846 - 22nd May 1890) name is printed on the bottom part of the titled page. The top edge of the papers are gilt edge. 789 pages, plus additional index and other pages. All pages intact. All pages, text and lovely illustrations are in really good, clean, readable order. The green ribbon bookmark is in the book between pages but not attached.
This wonderful book is an excellent and informative book for all individuals who love needle work and should be preserved for future generations.
