Title: Great reference book for China fairings
Review: Fairings (because they were available at fairs) or bed pieces are small groups of gaily colored china figures made for Victorian fairgrounds mostly during the period 1860 to 1890. Despite growing popularity, little is known about them and nothing has previously been written.This book records the author's researches during a period of 30 years and it provides much information that was previously unknown. The fairings provide interesting evidence of the humor and sentiment appreciated by the Victorian masses who flocked to the fiargrounds. Each bears a caption like "The last in bed to put out the light," and a tendency is evident for the themes to develop from bawdiness to sentimentality during the period they cover.
