Nutting, Wallace. FURNITURE TREASURY (Mostly of American Origin).
Framingham; Old America Company: 1928.

The first edition of Nutting's massive pictorial reference, lacking the
3rd volume which was published several years later. "Regarded as the bible
of furniture collectors for more than fifty years, Nutting's "Furniture
Treasury" remains an unsurpassed pictorial dictionary of American
furniture; however, the terse captions cannot be relied on..." (Ames).

tight set in the original ands scarce dust jackets. Jackets with some
minor chipping and minor soil; the jacket for Volume One is covered with
the original glassine wrappers, which are somewhat chipped.

bookplate. [03685] $450.00
