A short article from the Bulletin of the Needle and Bobbin Club describing the lace and embroidery collection of the Cincinnati Museum, acquired in 1883 through the Women's Art Museum Association. It traces the collection's origin with the French collector Mme. Fulgence and its purchase via Sir Philip Cunliffe Owen of the South Kensington Museum. It then gives a country-by-country list of the 425 pieces (Italy, France, Belgium, Holland, Spain) by type: lacis, needlepoint, bobbin, reticella and embroidery. Photographs show Italian and Spanish cushion covers with reticello, punto in aria and cutwork, and an Italian sampler.
