Getting the Most Out of the V&A Sampler Collection

I mentioned a little while ago that the Victoria and Albert Museum in London has many collections on line, including the sampler collection. So you can click here to browse the images. However, I wonder if you discovered that you could do a little more than that, you can create a PDF library of the collection. Here is how you do it. Choose a sampler that interests you and then click View Details.






That will give you a new page with some sampler details, now find the button for Download PDF version and click on that.

Then you will be able to download a fact sheet. You can either print it out or, better and greener, combine all your downloaded PDFs into one document to create your own reference book.

  1. I visited the V&A Museum a few years ago and loved the way I was able to view their samplers with ease. Thank you for sharing these samplers and the information as to how to place them in our computers for any time viewing.
