Many of these paper frames were detinctively decorated. We note a range of both colors and decorations. The frame on the previous page is a good example of period decoration. Other paper frames were very plain. There are some wonderful artdeco decorations. The frame here is a good example of artdeco deciration (figure1). The colors often employed a two shade print to add contrast to the decoration. The frames we see are always shades of the same color rather than two colors. The colors employed are commolnly brown, green, and grey. Many were done as arched openings rather than a standard rectangular shape. We are not yet sure about how to date the color and decoration.
