June 1917 issue (Vol. 1, No. 2) of the Bulletin of the Needle and Bobbin Club, a New York collectors' club for lace and needlework. It reports on the Club's first exhibition of Binche and Valenciennes laces, with plates of lappets and panels from members' collections. It also has an article distinguishing "German Val" and "Val de Dieppe" from true Valenciennes, and a paper on the Belgian lace industry covering lace-makers' wages, working conditions, schools and the effects of the war. Other sections include club notes with new members and rules, a note on Nottingham lace wages, library and lace-pattern notes, a bibliography supplement on lace and embroidery, and many dealers' advertisements.
