One drawing book entitled Freehand Drawing of Ornament. A Collection of Drawing Copies Reproduced from Original Photographs, Selected and Arranged, by Robert Bunting, published by C. Arthur Pearson Limited, London, ca. 1890. Title copy is framed by a decorative border. "Pearson's School Series" is printed above the title, and "Price Half-a-Crown" is printed below the publisher's statement. This book contains 22 numbered, photographed images of floral and decorative ornaments (originals in stone), on perforated paper, so that each leaf may be torn out if desired. The first 2 unnumbered pages are principally textual, giving "Suggestions for freehand drawing from the cast of photographs." Each of the numbered images is protected by a guardsheet (none of the sheets have been removed). The inside of the front cover is blank. Printed on the inside back cover is: "Miller, Son and Compy., Limited, Printers, Finsbury Circus Buildings, London, E.C." The back cover is an advertisement for "Pearson's Attractive Drawing Books, by Robert Bunting." Laid in between ornaments 10 and 11 is a single sheet of "Standard Tracing Cloth", light gray and has the company logo printed in green on it (another is contained in envelope 6).
