This book was prepared in response to the tremendous interest
in Gustav Stickley's earlier furniture designs. It is
a compilation of rare drawings from the 1901 Chips
from the Craftsman Workshops, 1902 retailers plates,
Gustav Stickley's 1901 catalog, and the Supplement to
Catalogue D from 1905. The material is arranged in chronological
order.
The original pages have been reorganized in some instances
in the interest clarity and appearance. The book includes
some contemporary photos of rare and important examples
of Gustav Stickley's work from before 1905, as well as
illustrations of lamps, shades, hanging fixtures, and
wicker furniture pieces. This book should help to resolve
some questions regarding the design, design evolution,
and production of Gustav Stickley's Craftsman furniture.
