Interiors for To-Day

A superb art deco survival. 'The most recent wallpaper productions and some new methods of using them are shown in this collection of sketches', from the introduction.

In 1860 Arthur Sanderson (1829–1882), founded his wallpaper company in Islington, by importing French wallpapers, until he established his own a factory in Chiswick in 1879. Following Arthur Sanderson's death, the business was taken over by his three sons, John, Harold and Arthur Bengough, the latter receiving a Royal Warrant as 'Purveyor of Wallpapers and Paints to King George V'. When Morris & Co. was dissolved in 1940, Sanderson and Sons bought its wallpaper business and rights to use the Morris name.
