An illustrated 1916 article surveying lace bobbins used in pillow lace making, with attention to their materials, shapes and regional types. It covers Italian, Spanish, Swiss, Austrian, Russian, French (Bayeux, Tignes) and English bobbins, including English inscribed motto and memorial bobbins and Venetian glass examples. Two plates show nineteen numbered bobbins with origin, material and lender, and a photograph shows a lace-maker at Tignes, France.
