BIBLIOGRAPHY
OF PUBLISHED BOOKS DONATED IMAGES AND OTHER REFERENCE SOURCES
|
There have been four main books which discuss the silks of the Victorian period of the late 1800's and early 1900's.
Of these, three mainly detail, with pictures, the various silks produced by Thomas Stevens. Only one, that of Godden, catalogues the silks of other manufacturers, principally Grant, and also provides extensive history of this fascinating subject.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Much that we know of the silk weavers of the time is due to the Godden book, and this web site draws extensively from his book. In addition, with all the very many contributors of images, this site has become an essential reference source.
Chris Radley wrote a series of books discussing the various silk postcards produced in the UK and Europe. His research refined the Godden catalogue of both Stevens and Grant postcards, and listed for the first time various titles of the Stevens Alpha Series cards.
In addition to these published works, I am greatly indebted to the late John High, who was a collector in the USA. He very kindly give me access to his own, un-published catalogue of Victorian silks. This catalogue greatly extended Radley's list of the Stevens Alpha Series postcards, and John's list also included the ship and Hands Across the Sea postcards.
Lewis Cowen published a booklet (in early 2001) which discussed in detail the history of the Brocklehurst Fabric weavers. His work lists all the pictures produced by Brocklehurst, and contains colour photographs and technical details of all of them. This booklet is now out of print.
The Bookmark Society, based in the UK, is an essential resource for all bookmark information. They publish Occasional Papers, two of which recorded all known British bookmark titles issued by J & J Cash in the twentieth century, and up to 2016. They have given me permission to use these Papers as the bed rock of the Cash's bookmark catalogue.
The Stevengraph Collectors Association publishes a Newsletter several times a year. These contain multiple images of silks, and useful and interesting information relating to British weavers. As well as being a source of new titles, on occations, with permission, images have also been reproduced in this database.

Importantly, Jenni's research has been instrumental in identifying the exact Stevens Bible Bookmark titles, which were previously only known from advertisements of the 1869-1870's, and these new titles are included on this site. Following other research, Jenni found both an extensive report of the legal case Thomas Stevens v Mulloney & Johnson, which help us understand better the Stevens bookmark titled " THE REDEEMER ", and also an advert by Mulloney & Johnson which detailed twelve previously unknown bookmark titles which have been added to this site.
