"Old-World Galleries" is a vintage catalogue of antique furniture which was on sale at 31, Baker Street, London. As well as examples of antique furniture, this profusely-illustrated volume also includes timeless tips and advice on identifying, cleaning, repairing, and much more; and as such will be of utility to antiques dealers and collectors alike. Contents include: "Useful Hints", "Staining Floorboards", "Cleaning Furniture", "Polish", "To Remove White Marks from Mahogany", "Hints on Furnishing", "Schemes for Sitting Rooms", "Scheme for Dainty Bedroom", "A Few Hints on Faked Antiques", "Goods Taken in Part Exchange", "Repairs", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive.
