A nice copy of the "New Edition" of this classic volume, first published in 1914. Documents a great deal of Navaho and Pueblo blankets. "Prior to 1892 the modern Navaho blanket was almost unknown. As I shall show in the chapter on the early history of the blanket, there were rare, fine, and wonderful blankets made early in the last century that today are the enby and desire of the collector, but it was not until after 1892 that the blanket began to be made on a large scale as a commercial article."
