About the Item
Rings For The Finger : From The Earliest Known Times To The Present, With Full Descriptions Of The Origin, Early Making, Materials, The Archaeology, History, For Affection, For Love, For Engagement, For Wedding, Commemorative, Mourning, Etc.
By George Frederick Kunz. Publisher J. B. Lippincott Company Philadelphia / London, 1917. The book is signed by the author and inscribed to his friend Frank Doubleday. Frank Nelson Doubleday 1862-1934, known to friends and family as “Effendi” ("F.N.D."), founded the Doubleday & McClure Company in 1897, which later operated under other names. Starting work at the age of 14 after his father's business failed, Doubleday began with Charles Scribner's Sons in New York.
His son Nelson Doubleday, son-in-law John Turner Sargent, Sr. and grandson Nelson Doubleday, Jr. all worked in the company and led it through different periods. In 1986, after years of changes in the publishing business, his grandson Nelson Doubleday, Jr. as president sold the Doubleday Company to the German group Bertelsmann. This book is still the "Bible" on the subject.
