Seventh Annual Exhibition of the Paint and Clay Club 1888
A catalogue of the seventh annual exhibition of the Paint and Clay Club, a Boston art society, issued in 1888 for its members and visitors to the show. Its pictures are small black-and-white engravings of an inkwell and quill, a fireplace lining design, and an art materials box, with a decorative lettered header. A designer might take from them the crisp line-work of period advertising and trade illustration, with stylised lettering and vignette borders.
