Excerpt from Chats on Old Miniatures Acceding to the wish of my Publishers that the following pages should be included in a certain well known series, I have termed them Chats on Old Miniatures, but confess that I consider the title somewhat of a misnomer, inasmuch as I have been accustomed to regard a chat as a conversation between two or more persons interested in a given subject; whereas in this little volume it is obvious that I have done all the talking.

And I wrote it for people who are not too high-and-dry to enjoy a good miniature because it is not the best or most costly of the kind.

Excerpt from Chats on Old Pewter MY first volume on Pewter Plate was published in 1904, just at the time that the first Exhibition of Pewter was held at Clifford's Inn Hall. As it was the first in the field in its own department, for Mr. Welch's History of the Pewterers' Company did not attempt to treat the subject from any other than the historical, and, in some cases, the social point of view, it has been of use to many dealers and many collectors, who have acknowledged their indebtedness, and to some others, who have thought such acknowledgment unnecessary. These latter might have allowed me the copyright in my own mistakes, particularly in some obvious printers' errors.

Excerpt from Chats on Old Prints: With 110 Illustrations and a Coloured Frontispiece It is a matter Open to question whether the younger units of the present generation, who have grown up in the environment of the pictorial magazine and journal and the thousand-and-one forms of illustration by modern process, quite realise the departure from the older methods of engraving. Finely wrought steel engraving is a lost art, and the wood engraver of middle-victorian days with his sandbag, his boxwood block, and his graver has gone to that most permanent of all furrows, the grave itself, which Time has cut enduringly.

Excerpt from Chats on Old Jewellery and Trinkets The scheme actually followed includes a short historical sketch up to the end of the seventeenth century. It makes no pretence to being complete, but will, I h0pe, be found to contain all that is necessary to lead up to the more detailed chapters, which deal with eighteenth and early nineteenth century work, and the subjects which appeal to the minor collectors, for whom this book has been written. In this miscellaneous section various points of view have been taken; for instance, the collector of rings will find a chapter devoted to his subject, while the specialist in a particular material, such as Pinchbeck, or paste, has not been forgotten. In these are incorporated the notes and sketches which have been collected during many years past, both with regard to pieces which Ior my friends possess, and those which have specially interested me as a practical jeweller and enameller.

Excerpt from Chats on Old Copper and Brass The collection of old metal may at first sight appear a somewhat unattractive hobby; a moment's reflection, however, brings to mind the wonderful art treasures of metal in our museums, gathered together from many parts of the world; not necessarily of the precious metals, for many of the most cunningly contrived objects of antiquarian research are of copper in one or more of its numerous forms of alloy. Copper is the basis of so many alloys of which metallic curios are formed, that in its combination with other metals it gives the collector an almost inexhaustible field of research. It was the metal of the ancients, which in combination with tin gave them that useful metal with which to fashion weapons of offence and defence, and later, as the Bronze Age advanced, utilitarian objects of household economy. Collectors find the Age of Metals unfolding as they arrange their collections with orderly sequence, and thereby trace the progress of artificers throughout the periods which have intervened since the first bronze celt was moulded to the present day.

Excerpt from A Book of Cambridge Verse Nevertheless, after all deductions have been made, how much true poetry is yet left! He must be hard to please who cannot find intense enjoyment in the Eclogues of Phineas Fletcher, in Cowley's epitaph on Harvey, in the Miltonic stanzas of Gray's Installation Ode, in a score of other pieces, grave, quaint, or classical in their allusive ness of phrasing. Especially grateful must we be to the number of poets, of exquisite feeling and easy mastery of form, who during the last fifty or sixty years have enriched the language with delicate and elegant verse, from which it has been only too difficult to choose because its quantity is so great and its merit so even. Of this we trust we have given a tolerably adequate selection but it would have been easy to multiply it fourfold.
