Souvenirs of Jamaica : notes on the manufacture of couriosities & other souvenirs

Wortley, E. J. (E. Jocelyn) · 1906 · Kingston, Jamaica : [s.n.] · 5 pictures

Souvenirs of Jamaica is a 1906 guide to making curios and other souvenirs, written by E. J. Wortley and published in Kingston, Jamaica, for visitors and tourism makers. Its pictures are plain photographic plates and printed border strips; the floral scroll bands show repeating rosette and leaf patterns a designer could adapt for trim, frames, or border systems, while the plates of fish, a scorpion, a tarantula, spider nests, crocodiles and eggs give a documentary record of local natural curios.
