Box 1

This collection holds original painted illustrations of home furnishing designs (armchairs and side chairs, desks, tables, sofas, ottomans and beds) and interior textiles such as bedspreads and curtains; all are signed by Max Walter, but only some are dated. Many renderings are stamped with the imprint "W. & J. Sloane" with an address of 575 Park Ave in New York City, and many also have handwritten pre-print notations.
