Silhouettes To Cut In School, by Katharine Gough Buffum, offers a charming glimpse into early 20th-century art education. Originally published in 1917, this book provides instruction and patterns for creating silhouettes, a popular and accessible art form of the time.

With clear instructions and delightful examples, Silhouettes To Cut In School is not only a historical artifact but also a practical resource for teachers, crafters, and anyone interested in exploring this timeless craft.
