Craftsmanship in competitive industry; being a record of the workshops of the Guild of Handicraft, and some deductions from their twenty-one years' experience
Craftsmanship in Competitive Industry is a 1908 record by Charles Robert Ashbee of the Guild of Handicraft's workshops and their twenty-one years of experience, published by the Essex House Press at Chipping Campden. The photographs are black-and-white halftones of Cotswold village houses and a guild smithy, with stone walls, mullioned windows and a worker at an anvil. A designer might take from them the rough texture of local stone architecture and the plain, documentary look of early twentieth-century Arts and Crafts photography.
