Description: MODERN FURNISHINGS FOR THE HOME 2 by William and Eliza Dornin Hennessey Rare 1956 First Edition in Dust Jacket 368 Pages and 582 black and white photographs William Hennessey, Eliza Dornin Hennessey [Associate]: MODERN FURNISHINGS FOR THE HOME 2. New York: Reinhold, 1956. Quarto. First edition. Green cloth stamped in black. Dust jacket. 368 pp. 582 black and white photographs. Jacket lightly worn ans scufffed. Large chip to spine crown and rear panel. Textblock well-thumbed. A truly rare book, never reprinted or reissued. A very good copy in a nearly very good dust jacket. 8.5 x 10.5  book, with 368 pages and 582 photographs illustrating classic midcentury furniture and decorative designs, produced between 1952 and 1956, including many rare examples of light fixtures and fabrics, two genres noticeably absent from most midcentury anthologies.  All pieces are identified by name, designer, manufacturer, dimensions and finishes. I suspect this information could be useful to some people out there. Also includes a section on rugs! This sequel to the 1952 edition is impossible to find -- you have been warned.    Contents: Chairs Tables Storage Sofas and Beds Desks Budget Lighting Fabrics Rugs Manufacturers and Representatives Designers Photographers Designers represented in volume two: Ruth Adler, Bengt Akerblom, William Armbruster, Joseph Baker, Robert Balonick, D.
