Golden Anniversary issue of the Bulletin of the Needle and Bobbin Club, volume 49 (1965-66), marking fifty years since the New York club was founded in 1916 to promote interest in lace and other handmade fabrics. It includes a history of the Club, portraits of past presidents, Marian Powys's reminiscence "Happy Days Remembered," and Club Notes with the list of officers. Most of the issue is a photographic catalog of textiles from members' collections (embroidery, lace, tapestry, samplers, silks, quilts, costume pieces, from Coptic to 19th century), with captions giving owner, technique, date, dimensions and provenance. A shorter section shows textiles made by members, including tapestry weaving and Honiton bobbin lace.
