Building a Crafts Collection

This 200 page hardback is copiously illustrated with mainly b/w photographs of items but with some in colour. It has a forward by Victor Margie and divided into 7 different sections that cover all of the crafts in the Crafts Council collection acquired between those dates. The sections are as follows: Books and lettering; Ceramics; Furniture, toys & wood; Glass; Jewellery; Metalwork and Textiles. There is also a list of Crafts in other collections and an Index of Makers. The book itself is tight and clean but the pages show a darkening around the edges due to the paper used and its age. The images are of the actual book being sold and show the dust jacket condition.
