[Rarebooks] fs: Wonderful book on wine labels

[Joslin Hall Rare Books]

Salter, John. WINE LABELS 1730-2003. A Worldwide History.

Woodbridge; Antique Collector's Club: 2005.

This is the first comprehensive study of wine labels to be published since 
1947, and it will become the standard study of the subject for decades to 
come. Written with the help of members of the Wine Label Circle, who have 
contributed to the text in accordance with their own specialist expertise, 
it explores the history of the development of not only the labels 
themselves, but also of the great collections. It examines the makers, 
places of manufacture and styles, and covers all sorts of labels, including 
silver, silver plate, gold, china, pottery, paktong, enamel, bone, 
aluminum, celluloid, brass, tin, gilt, mother-of-pearl, tortoiseshell, 
fabric, and other types of labels. A large, heavily illustrated, simply 
superb study. Hardcover. 8.5"x11" 600 pages, color and b/w illustrations, 
dj. New. [90145] $150.00
