I've  been looking at a book on ebay which is quite expensive, but is  
interesting.  I've decided that it's beyond my immediate procurement  budget, 
unfortunately.   ; )   BUT...  I'm still  interested in what others have to 
say.  
Please go to...

Dear Clay,
 
Given the publication date of 1878, and the fact that I own this book, it  is 
most likely that Tess scanned it for the Professor's site - so  you may go 
and take a look.
 
Daisy Waterhouse Hawkins "Old Point Lace and How to Copy It" is title on  
cover.  Inside title is "Old Point Lace and How to Copy and Imitate  It".  It 
has 
17 illustrations by the author, and 20 pages of text,  plus 36 pages of 
adverts for other books from publisher, Chatto &  Windus.  The illustration 
pages 
are horizontally long, thus folded.   Weak or broken in the folds.  
 
I paid $20 in 1999.in a store here in Maine.  The book had come from a  local 
library.  My book inventory list shows that I saw it somewhere in  2002 for 
$150.
 
If you do not find it on Professor's site, let me know and I'll write more  
about the contents, which the illustrations show are tapes,  joined needlelace 
stitches.
