A magnificent tour of canes and staffs from the late seventeenth
through the twentieth century in both folk art and formal designs.
Color photographs provide a sweeping survey of the varying cane
forms available to collectors today, including canes with handles
bearing human and animal forms, scrimshaw and glass canes, gadget
and weapons canes, political, and presentation canes. There is
something to peak anyone's interest among these beautiful and
engaging sticks. Even historic events and relics amy be found among
the canes pictured here. Both rare and common canes are presented
in an impressive visual format. Cane terminology, dating
techniques, and formal cane etiquette are among the topics
discussed in this collector's handbook. Photographs are arranged in
broad categories to provide a sense of the scope of human
imagination rendered in these magnificent sticks.
