A good clean First Edition copy of Volume IV of The Connoisseur Period Guides to the Houses, Decoration, Furnishing and Chattels of the Classic Periods, "Late Georgian 1760 - 1810". Edited by Ralph Edwards and L.G.G. Ramsey F.S.A., and published in 1956 by The Connoisseur, of which journal the latter was then Editor. Unsurpassed, both in the status of it's eminent contributors and in the quality of their contributions, this series remains, after more than sixty years, a benchmark for students of furniture history and the foundation upon which much subsequent scholarship rests. Hard covers, large format, 180 pages, line drawings and fine black and white plates, original dust jacket now in a rather shabby state.
