Yarn sample books, [1847?-1854?].

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122460158

Consist of 7 small (8-12 leaves each) paperbound volumes containing recipes for dyeing yarn, most of which are accompanied by a yarn sample in the finished color. Four of the volumes have printed covers indicating that they were manufactured in Boston or Waltham, MA as savings account passbooks in 1847, 1853 and 1854; presumably the dye recipes come from that area and time period as well.

7 v. ; 17 cm. or smaller.
