5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Repeat Designs
There are lots of bold black/white designs in this book. The designs are heavy on animals, griffins, fleur-de-lis, and heraldic motifs, but all are nice. Some designs are very simple and bold, and others have lots of detail. My favorites are the repeat designs. ... Read more

Over 200 authentic motifs from Java, Bali, Irian Jaya, and etc., including Batik, Ikat, Wayang Kulit (shadow puppet), Topeng (masks) designs. Illustrations are all black and white, copyright-free.

5-0 out of 5 stars A classic book!
This book contains tons of beautiful Chinese designs -- usually from ceramics or embroidery. Whenever I need a Chinese motif, I can find it here.

Like most Dover books, there's no real text to explain where the images came from or their significance. But for sheer volume of visual material, this book is a winner. ... Read more

Useless for newsletters. Also sorry I bought it.

1-0 out of 5 stars Not of use to me.
The book probably does have 1OO1 motifs but many were Victorian and so ornate they would be all but impossible to transfer to a greeting card. I would return it but the cost to return would take a large bite out of the cost of the book. Sorry I bought it. May be of use to graphic illustrators with more equipment than I possess. ...

4-0 out of 5 stars A fascinating glimpse into the past
"Spot Illustrations from Women's Magazines of the Teens and Twenties: 828 Cuts of Women, Family, Home, Garden, etc." is a valuable historical sourcebook. The collection has been compiled and arranged by Judy M. Johnson, who also provides an introduction.

The illustrations in this book depict the hair styles, clothing, and hat styles of this era. The illustrations also depict ideal women engaging in various activities: dancing, going on a horse drawn carriage ride, cooking and doing other household chores, etc. There are pictures of wedding dresses, home exteriors and interiors, etc.

Yes, these pictures undoubtedly present a sanitized portrait of the era. But this book is an interesting visual resource which opens a window onto the social values of the years from 1910-1929.

5-0 out of 5 stars Wonderful collection of graphic art from the 1910's & 1920's
This Dover publication is a collection of graphic art from magazines and children's literature published in the
1910's and 1920's. The cuts are in black and white and
are mainly line drawings and silhouettes. Many I can remember from my mother's childhood books that she
used to read to us as children. The illustrations were
collected by the author and her family over the years and limited permission is given for their use in graphic
and crafts applications. They would be wonderful for
use in newsletters, invitations, scrapbooks, decorative
painting, etc. Most of the illustrations are of women and
children, but there are some of men, scenery, and special occasions such as Christmas, Easter, winter, and spring. A companion book by the same author is
'Vintage Spot Illustrations of Children, 795 Cuts from the
Teens and Twenties'. ... Read more

3-0 out of 5 stars Solid, but not as current or comprehensive as one would like
For a compilation of logos, it was a definitely an adequate effort, just logos, their designers, the agencies and the project for which it was used. What I had found lacking was a larger introduction; it was essentially a couple of pages, and that was it. I did not mind that the largest single designer featured was by the author, but what was dissapointing was for the most part, how ordinary they looked. There were a few wonderful exceptions that demonstrated a marked regional (non-Western) flavor, but for the most part, Bauhaus ruled. Another problem occurs in the publishing date of the book. Although published recently, for the greatest part, the book is actually a reprint from the early 90's, hardly a reflection of current trends in India. I love logo compilations, but I'd prefer something more current, and with more explanation, such as you might find in the trade magazines. ... Read more
