I have got a boxed set of prickings and book entitled "33 Tonder Laces" by Meta Tonder, but with two copies of the book.
It was printed in 1954 and as with most books back then covers all the basics, and the first patterns are Torchon. The Tonder patterns don't go to a very complicated level - anyone that has done basic Bucks would be able to do. There are some much wider patterns in the set and illustrated worked in the book, but no instructions for them. I have no idea how this book compares to the "Technique of Tonder Lace" (I suspect it is more basic), but perhaps someone could comment if it would be any use to you. As to the other one, I would think that $451 is what the seller *thinks* is the going price. It is still for sale! As is the one at $197. The Ebay price at $72 is the only one where money has changed hands so is therefore more realistically the going price; it's the only one that's gone.
