The HSEAD Bookmarks
Click a picture to enlarge it.

For the past two years, HSEAD has sent a bookmark to its members, in appreciation of their support.  The Society plans to continue this practice, and these bookmarks show the potential of being a valued collectible. 

Each laminated bookmark is approximately 7 inches long, and shows a photographic representation of  one of our crafts.  On the reverse is a relevant quote, HSEAD's statement of appreciation (Thank you for your support and contribution to HSEAD), and the official address of the organization.  At the left is HSEAD's official seal.

The 2006 bookmark, shown at left above, illustrates an Early American tinware design, reproduced by member Patricia Murphy.  The quote on the reverse is:

"...the old time decorator, with his brush, laid on his paints in perfection of form and rhythm down to the tiniest detail of leaf spray and curling tendril."  Esther Stevens Brazer

The 2007 bookmark, shown at the right, illustrates a chair back pattern from HSEAD's Schnader Chair Pattern Collection.  The inscription is:

"...a cornucopia of fruited vines and clusters, sinuous floral sprays, festoons and berried wreaths,... the language of painted furniture in America...."  Florence deDampierre, The Best of Painted Furniture.
