Looking for a old book on theatrical set painting techniques that was scanned and made the rounds online several years back. My google-fu is coming up blank.
The book was from the turn of the last century. It had step by step instructions to recreate marble, stone, etc by faux finishing painting techniques. It was geared towards an apprentice set painter. One notable feature was the original book had hand painted colour plates.
I remember coming across scans from this book onlline, years back, but have no idea where. Does anyone remember this or know of it?

Response by poster: Not it I'm afraid, but that is a pretty cool book, thanks!
The one I am looking for was more on faux finishing painting techniques, had step by step directions on how to paint marble (ie this colour base, then add a layer of this color, etc)
