Osburn, Dover Publications, N.Y., 1926/1975.This early out-of-print book features detailed measured drawings for the making of 29 pieces of early American furniture. Here is an unabridged corrected republication of the 1926 original. This is an instructional book that allows you to “reproduce some of the finest examples of early American furniture right in your own home or workshop with this illustrated guide and project book. It contains 29 different pieces of furniture, each with detailed measured drawings (150 in all) and photographs. Styles range from early American, primitive to relatively sophisticated late 18th- and early 19th century trends, with the chosen pieces representing the work of such master craftsmen as Duncan Phyfe, William Savery, John Elliot, Hepplewhite, Goddard, and Sheraton. You’ll find virtually every type of furniture project included: a sideboard, chairs, a gate-legged table, chests, sewing tables, butterfly tables, beds, dressers, clockcases, a high boy, a couch, mirrors, desks, a teakettle stand, and more. There are projects here for designers and craftspeople at every level—from the simple, easy-to-put-together to the more intricate and time-consuming. But the drawings are clear and precise, with further constructional and descriptive commentary on every piece.” 8” x 10.8” softback in very good condition. 82 pages.
