Superb Froebel sample album measuring 11 x 9 1/2 inches. Publisher's black cloth album titled in gilt (ìKindergarten Workî). Accordion-bound heavy card leaves with cloth strips joining each leaf. Over Fifty Pages of Embroidery, Paper-Cutting, and Paper-Weaving of Froebel Gift samples: twenty pages of paper-cutting samples, eleven pages of paper-weaving, and twenty pages of embroidery samples (done with yarn on perforated cards). Fore-edge tie ribbon mostly detached. Adhesive marks on one page indicating that a paper weaving sample has fallen out. A clean, attractive example of a unique Froebel Gift album. Very good. The album includes Froebel Gifts twelve (sewing/embroidery), thirteen (paper-cutting), and fourteen (paper-weaving) represent an increase in difficulty as well as an increase in the aesthetic value of the finished products. Froebel valued beauty and artistry in learning, and the later Gifts encourage students to pay greater attention to color, design, and craft. These more advanced gifts, as well as gift eighteen (paper-folding) have been particularly influential to artists, architects bookbinders such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Kandinsky, Barbara Hodgson and Claudia Cohen.
