Their specialities were a process for rendering scraped vellum transparent and painting or drawing designs on the underside, the Etruscan style of decorating calf, and fore-edge painting. Founded by William Edwards and situated in Old Market, Halifax. Their premises were said to be one of the finest bookshops in the country. The company was famous for the rich and expensive bindings; some included paintings on the edges of the pages which could only be seen when the pages were fanned out - see Northowram Hall. The firm developed many techniques, including a process for rendering scraped vellum transparent and painting or drawing designs on the underside, the Etruscan style of decorating calf, and fore-edge painting. The company closed in ??. A collection of their publications was purchased by the Bodleian Library in 1966, after a subscription by the Friends of the Bodleian, in memory of L. W. Hanson, the eldest son of T. W. Hanson. The collection consists of primary material - their publications, catalogues, bindings, fore-edge paintings - and of secondary material. There are some relevant titles in the Transactions of the Halifax Antiquarian Society.
