Download or read book The Print-Collector's Handbook (Classic Reprint) written by Alfred Whitman and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Print-Collector's Handbook IN the following pages an attempt is made to supply answers to some of the many questions that a number of years' experience has shown to be those most frequently asked by art amateurs at the commencement of their print-collecting, and also by those who have devoted some time and attention to the pursuit of their hobby. In consequence of the limitation of a single volume like the present one, it has been thought best to refrain from commenting upon the etchings and engravings of living artists whose place in art is not yet definitely fixed. Most of the illustrations have been made by the half-tone process; but in order that collectors may more closely examine the actual technique of the different methods of engraving, specimens of the various styles have been reproduced in collotype. In this latter process no screen or visible foreign grain intervenes to impair or destroy the texture of the original work, and the results are therefore as faithful as a mechanical process will yield. These collotype reproductions can be easily identified by reference to the List of Illustrations. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis Collecting by Letter, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) by : William A. Shryer
Download or read book Collecting by Letter, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) written by William A. Shryer and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Collecting by Letter, Vol. 1 Through the entire fabric of modern business are woven the endless threads of credit and collections. Every business is founded on credit and supported by its collections. In direct proportion to the intelligence and understanding with which these two important features are dealt a business is successful. Certain principles and rules of action have grown out of the long practice of these important phases of trade, but we may claim for neither that it is an exact science. There is no dependable literature on either subject generally available for the average business man, although the Course on Scientific Collections published by The American Collection Service of Detroit covers the entire field exhaustively. This course was designed to train men in the collection agency field, and its distribution has been largely confined to men in this profession. This course may be secured by those interested in possessing a thorough treatment of this important subject, however, and the wealth of its collection instruction will be found highly profitable to any business man. The purpose of the present volumes is to afford an insight into the principles underlying collections by letter. From time to time various so-called books of collection letters have been published, but aside from containing an unrelated mass of commonplace form letters of doubtful value, few have contained the slightest degree of merit, or commended themselves to the intelligence of the thoughtful or aggressive business man.
