The boxes of yesteryear were quite unlike the plain cardboard boxes today. They were known for their unique crafted quality and distinct suitability to the job they were needed for. This excellent book is a comprehensive study of pre-Civil War boxes. It examines an extensive variety used for household, artistic and recreational purposes throughout the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries. Beautifully illustrated with photos both black and white and full-color, this excellent book is destined to become a collectors' classic, and delight for any collector or fan of antique boxes.
