Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The American Method of Carriage Painting: Embracing Full Directions for the Employment of Permanent Wood Filling, Varnishes, Japans, &C
At the earnest solicitation of many friends and brother painters, to put upon paper a plain statement of the method em ployed and materials used by the best New York Carriage painters, particularly that of Brewster Co. (of Broome Street), by whom I was formerly employed, I have at last found time among my duties as assistant editor of the Paint Department of T/ze HM to pen down the most important items relative thereto, with the hope that they will at least merit a careful perusal, and possibly shed a ray of light in the corners of some paint shop.
