Social histories and biographies, old newspapers, museums, and antique and curio shops do provide some answers about the past. This Edwardian catalogue is largely made of facsimile pages from Lassetters' Commercial Review 1911. Printed endpapers are an absolute highlight, a window into life in the 1900s.
