Uploader Notes:
Book scan of "Handbook of Ornament" by F.S. Meyer. This is an awesome book if you're doing an ornament/symbol analysis, although it is considered as an old book but I haven't find other ornament book as complete as this. It was very useful for me when i was writing my thesis. Enjoy.
