Illustrated catalogue / Hinks, Wells & Co., manufacturers of steel & metal pens, penholders, letter clips, ticket hooks, shelf suspenders, drawing pins, stationers' sundries, etc
An 1911 trade catalogue issued by Hinks, Wells & Co., a manufacturer of steel pens, penholders and stationers' sundries, aimed at stationery trade buyers. Its pages are rows of small line-drawn office fittings, each labelled with a model number and a wholesale price per gross, set out as plain product sheets. A designer might borrow the tidy grid of hardware diagrams and the compact price-labelled layout for a practical catalogue or shop-supply system.
