Archival Handling This catalog is offered as an intact paper object rather than separated pages. When paper items are handled, stored, or shipped by AJ | Gilded, archival materials and careful reversible methods are used whenever applicable. Any notable details about prior handling, binding, covers, page wear, or storage condition will be shown or described in the listing. Sourcing & Preservation This is an original antique catalog from 1909, not a modern reproduction. At AJ | Gilded, we are preservation-first minded thinkers. We do not break intact books or catalogs for individual pages; our works on paper are sourced from already-separated plates, incomplete or damaged volumes, prior collections, and other materials no longer preserved as complete books. This catalog is being offered intact. Shipping & Returns Items are shipped carefully protected using acid-free and lignin-free materials. The majority of loose paper listings ship free, and I am always happy to combine shipping on those that may not be included. I accept returns within 30 days of purchase - items must be returned in original condition, with all parts included. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any issues with your order upon arrival.
