Craft Book: Tole Style Decorative Painting
By Loretta Sias
1974 Craft Course Publishers, Inc.
24 Pages

Tole painting dates back to the day when immigrants first settle the American wilderness. Since tin utensils were common at the time, it became the fashion to decorate "toleware". As a result traditional folk painting eventually earned the name of "tole painting".
