PAIN, William (c. 1730-c. 1790). The Builder’s Pocket-Treasure. Boston: William Norman, 1794. First architectural work printed by William Norman. William seems to have been a relation of the prolific architectural publisher John Norman; they worked out of the same address. This and other works by the British architect William Pain were major sources for Asher Benjamin's pattern books—suitably translated into an American vernacular. Evans 25955; Hitchcock 894.12mo (178 x 103mm). 55 engraved plates, many double-page, one large and folding (folding pl. 46 torn at folds with some repairs, some plate repaired around edges, dampstaining at end). Contemporary sheep (worn, with old newspaper adhered to rear board, tailband broken with lower spine perished). Provenance: Jethro Peckham (inscription on flyleaf; his family's home survives in Middleton, RI).
