Old Navajo Rugs: Their Development from 1900 to 1940, With keys to their identification

Description

Author: Rodee, Marion E. (1940-2024)

Publisher: University of New Mexico Press

Pub Date: 1981 (First paperback printing)

Binding: Paperback

Condition: Fair.  Binding tight, but I think at some point in the future the rear pages/signature will come loose (aging glue).  Not yet though.  No marks, tears, bends.  There is a crease/fold along the front cover spine edge, caused by opening the book.  Light edge and corner wear.

Notes:  Rodee was Curator of Anthropology at the Maxwell Museum of Anthropology.  She pioneered methods of dating and identifying historic Navajo rugs through analysis of their wool and fiber types, and the structural traits of their weaving materials.
