Trade price list.
A trade price list issued in 1889 by F. Zimmerman of Cleveland, Ohio, for picture framers and dealers, cataloguing moldings and frame profiles. The pictures are engraved or printed plates of vertical moulding sections showing carved acanthus scrolls, egg-and-dart style bands, rope twist, chain links and bead patterns, with a designer able to take ready-made ornamental strips for frame edges, cornices and decorative borders.
