His typescript autobiography is included in the archive which follows him through an apprenticeship in London's City Road with early practice as a cabinet maker before working alongside William Lethaby at the Central School and subsequently leading the cabinet department at the Shoreditch Technical Institution in London. His two most significant works, both published by Batsford, were "Modern Cabinet Work" (1909) which brought him to a wider audience and "Furniture for Small Houses" (1924) but as revealed by this archive, his work went much wider. Included in the archive is the following material: I. PHOTOGRAPHS A fantastic collection of gelatin photographs of furniture, many used as illustrations in Wells' books and labelled as such to verso. Contained within an envelope labelled in a later hand: 'Furniture designed by Percy Wells. (Including Shoreditch).'

The yellow wraps remain exceptionally bright and clean, with only the most trivial hint of shelf-wear rubbing to the extreme corner tips.

Catalogue Note: Issued as BSHS Monograph 6 (under series editor Dr. J. G. Smith), this first edition handlist represents a cornerstone bibliographical and archival reference for industrial chemistry. As a scholarly paperback strictly intended for academic and institutional use, well-preserved copies are uncommonly encountered on the open market today, particularly in such sharp, uncreased condition.

Compiled by eminent historians of science Peter J. T. Morris and Colin A. Russell, the text offers researchers a detailed roadmap to the surviving corporate, technical, and personal papers of Britain's pioneering chemical firms, mapping the foundational documents of modern industrial science.
