- This c. 91,000 word monograph represents the culmination of a research project extending over more than twelve years. It documents and analyses a wide range of materials including India papers, stucco papers, flock and papier mâché. This required the study of a vast mass of unpublished bills, accounts, and correspondence required in some 40 archives, museum collections and historic sites across the UK. Two appendices, one detailing over 30 sites by housing and room type, the other documenting the activities of almost 100 London paper hanging tradesmen, further underscore the sustained research effort.
