Sampler made at the British and Foreign School Society. Culture: British. Dimensions: H. 3 7/8 x W. 3 1/2 inches (9.8 x 8.9 cm). Date: 1825.This small sampler worked with the alphabet in upper and lower case, as well as number 1 through 9, represents the tenth lesson in the "Manual of the System of Teaching Needlework in the Elementary Schools of The British and Foreign School Society," published in 1821. This educational society was founded by Quaker Joseph Lancaster (1778-1838) out of concern for the lack of educational opportunities available to poorer children, particularly those whose families not members of the Church of England.

A complete example of this manual, dating from 1821, is also preserved in the Museum's collection (accession number 43.63). Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
