First edition, thus, of this very uncommon wallpaper sample catalogue presenting the lithographic friezes drawn from eminent artists works for illustrating the interiors of post-World War I era homes. These pictorial friezes include "The River Rhine" which could cover up to 35 feet without repeating, or those such as "Child World" of children playing, 'The Monks" available with extension, or "The Bermudian" a tropical forest scene repeating every 10 feet. Along with forests and mountain scenes, the catalogue also includes hand-painted decorative scenes in 29 in. wide sections, including "Jerusalem," "Views of Japan," "Views of China," and "The Orient." Kayser & Allman was initially founded in 1871 by M.M. Kayser at Vine St. in Philadelphia, and by 1888 the firm had become Kayser & Allman, and after several moves, resided at the 1522 Chestnut St. address by 1907.
