About this book

Stencils & Stencil Materials, Sherwin-Williams Co., 1910. The paint maker's stencil catalog — back in print.

Sherwin-Williams sold the paint, and this 1910 catalog sold the stencils to put it through: stencil designs and stencil materials from the biggest paint company in America, illustrated with prices. A 44-page piece of trade ephemera from the height of the stencil era, when ornamented walls and decorated storefronts were cut-pattern work.

For the stencil collector and the decorative painter, it is both a design book — period stencil patterns ready to be cut again — and a historical document of how the trade bought its ornament. Short, illustrated, and full of usable patterns from the Sherwin-Williams line.

The 1910 stencil catalog, reproduced complete.

Details: PDF digital download, 44 pages.

?? Please read before ordering — about print quality

This is a digital edition scanned from a historical document. The pages were scanned from an original 1910 printing, and the quality of your download reflects the condition of that original scan.

What that means in plain terms: you may see faded text, uneven inking, age spots, show-through from the back of pages, and other imperfections that were in the 1910 original or introduced by the scanning process. These are preserved as-is — they are not printing defects, and they are not something we can fix.

We are not responsible for the condition of the original source material. If you want a pristine modern typeset book, this isn't it. If you want the actual 1910 manual with all its character intact, you're in the right place.
