Double issue (Vol. 56, Nos. 1 & 2, 1973) of the Needle and Bobbin Club Bulletin, dedicated to Alice Baldwin Beer and Edith Appleton Standen. Standen's illustrated article traces engravings and prints (Moreau, Callot, Prud'hon) that served as sources for French printed cottons such as toiles de Jouy, with plates of the Metropolitan Museum's pieces. Katherine B. Brett describes the Josephine Howell Scrapbook, an album of over seventy Indian painted cottons from the Coromandel Coast, with plates and page-by-page notes on design, dating, dimensions and colors. The issue also has book reviews (tapestry, Navajo blankets, 19th-century embroidery, Palestinian spinning and weaving), notes on authors, club notes and a list of officers.
