Description
    Siehe: http://www.tmoi.org.uk Projekt zu den Musterbüchern Edition SECOND SERIES nicht komplett. “The project was never completed and the series finally consisted only of a run from 1-134 and 386-1116, a total of 765 items.” (Seite 35 des Textes), Zitat aus: Barbara Swallow “The India Museum and the British-Indian textile trade in the late nineteenth century” in: Textile History, 30 (1), 1999, pp. 29-45. Das entspricht ziemlich genau den fehlenden Alben der Sammlung.
