The Depot of the Guild of Women Binders
has just been established in Charing Cross Road,
and Mr. Frank Karslake now acts as agent for
the Guild, and also for the Hampstead Bindery.
To Mr. Karslake's courtesy are due the accom-

some idea of the high-class and original work
which women are now producing in the field of
book-binding.
The Guild of Women Binders consists of
about sixty-seven members, and includes women
connected with the Chiswick Art Workers'
Guild, the Edinburgh Arts and Crafts' Club, the
Gentlewomen's Guild of Handicrafts, the Kirkby
Lonsdale Handicrafts Classes, the Royal School
of Art Needlework, besides a number of indi-

ings held in 1897. The success of this show
and the interest it called forth proved not only
that a public demand existed for artistic bind-
ings, but also that women were capable of great
inventive talent in decorative design.
