The book is in Very Good+ condition and was issued without a dust jacket. There is some creasing to the top front corner of the book cover. The text pages are clean an…d bright. "The object of the First International Exhibition of Miniature Textiles is to show that the vitality we have come to expect from large textiles could be communicated in the small. The exhibitors were invited to produce work up to 20cm in any direction which is a dimension believed to impose a discipline of scale and space and so encourage the artist to construct a true miniature textile rather than a large textile made small."

paperback. Condición: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that… encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.

Wells (1867-1956), a cabinet maker and disciple of William Morris, lectured, taught and wrote extensively during the later phase of the Arts and Crafts movement in Britain. His typescript autobiography is included in the archive which follows him through an apprenticeship in London's City Road with early practice as a cabinet maker before working alongside William Lethaby at the Central School and subsequently leading the cabinet department at the Shoreditch Technical Institution in London. His two most significant works, both published by Batsford, were "Modern Cabinet Work" (1909) which brought him to a wider audience and "Furniture for Small Houses" (1924) but as revealed by this archive, his work went much wider. Included in the archive is the following material: I. PHOTOGRAPHS A fantastic collection of gelatin photographs of furniture, many used as illustrations in Wells' books and labelled as such to verso. Contained within an envelope labelled in a later hand: 'Furniture designed by Percy Wells. (Including Shoreditch).'

PERCY WELLS' TYPESCRIPT AUTOBIOGRAPHY: Containing 22-page (A4) Typescript Autobiography titled 'Fifty Years in the Furniture Trade' by Percy Wells, 1934 (according to a handwritten note by Wells, it was published on three instalments inside the publication: "The Cabinet Maker" (in the year 1934). The short autobiography describes Wells' poor background, his apprenticeship in the City Road as a cabinet maker; mentored by Stephen Webb and W. R. Lethaby and then teaching-work at Central School and Shoreditch Technical Institute. The Typescript - Autobiography is included in a Folder (Numbered "9") which also includes: a. Typescript Autobiography b.

There are for example variations on William Morris titled in handwriting: 'Border Designs - Corners from W. Morris's Books, a series of heraldic shield-fillings, credited to William Morris and a full page attempt at what seems to be a graphic tribute to Morris with the names of 'Dante Rossetti', 'Madox Brown', 'Burne Jones' contained within a column in the right margin and the slogan 'ARTS - CRAFTS - POETRY - BEAUTY - BROTHERHOOD' at the foot of the page.
