Serviettes: Dinner Napkins And How To Fold Them, With Above One Hundred Illustrations. Georgina C. Clark Published by Dean & Son of London. Undated but from the 1890s. Scarce copy of this charming little book, with plenty of small woodcuts throughout. 36 pages plus 25 pages of advertisements, all printed on stiff paper (without spotting) and bound in a dulled, crinkled and unprepossessing mid-brown cloth on card covers. Two pages have been reattached. The book contains step-by-step instructions for creating thirty different napkin displays, from the simple tulip to the complex bridal serviette, and the Introduction describes the history of table linen and the arrival of the fork into England in 1608.
