By Rackham, Bernard
London: Victoria and Albert Museum, 1924 Book. Near Fine. Hardcover. New, revised and best edition of these rare catalogues. 3 volumes. Small quarto. Pp. xviii, 226 + 139 + 102 plus 230 black & white photographs showing hundreds of pieces. Bibliographies and indexes. Blue cloth, gilt. Light rubbing to extremities, very light wear to spine ends. A near fine set. This revised edition has corrected attributions, the entries have been rearranged in approximately chronological order within the appropriate groups, etc. The three volumes cover (respectively) porcelain, earthenware, and enamels & glass. These catalogues are very important; the porcelain volume alone included pieces from all the major factories including Bow, Chelsea, Derby, Worcester, Longton Hall, Plymouth, Bristol etc., etc. and some Chinese, French and German. Scarce as a complete set as the volumes were published in 1924, 1928, and 1930, respectively..
