An Australian agent's sample book with coloured illustrations of suggestions and ideas and thirteen sample papers, including ceiling papers. Wall Paper Manufacturers Ltd was a conglomerate incorporated in 1899 that consisted of almost every British company. It dominated wallpaper sales in Britain and Australia in the first half of the twentieth century. A few companies - like Sanderson, included here (pages 31-33) - kept their own identity. Clarkson were paint makers in an earlier incarnation but by the twenties had expanded into all things decorative. -Based on a Richard Neylon Rare Books listing, and http://museum.collection.hht.net.au/ information for WPM, viewed July 2017.
