The Diamond dye almanac and household guide : 1888 / Wells, Richardson & Co.
The Diamond Dye Almanac and Household Guide is a trade almanac and household guide issued by Wells, Richardson & Co. in 1888 to promote their dyes to shopkeepers and home users. Its pictures are small woodcut-style engravings, including a Lactated Food advertising card, a railway train scene, and a domestic dyeing scene at a stove, which suggest a designer could borrow the period's compact trade-card layouts and vignette framing.
