Nice first edition of this well-illustrated standard text within the ornamental metal architectural embellishments industry. Fun twist: Extra-illustrated with a tipped-in frontispiece (NOT as issued), a 9" X 12" printed "Code of Ethics" published by this association; within an ornamental border, this text-heavy certificate spells out ten tenets "Adopted at a Meeting Held in Columbus, Ohio, June 27, 1939."
