Recent blue wrappers., xxviii + 246 pp Some wear to wrapps especially at the spine. Members of the committee were Mr Ascroft; Thomas Bayley, Caldwell, Captain Chaloner, Garfit, Hazell, Jeffreys, Lloyd-George, A K Loyd, Dr M'Donnell, Price, T W Russell, Warr, George Whiteley and Mr Yerburgh. There are a few paragraphs relating to extortionate money-lending by Jews at ruinous rates of interest, these men being absolutely loathed by the Jewish community and being strongly condemned from the Synagogues. The committee was set up on 16 February 1898 to 'Inquire into the alleged evils attendant upon the system of Money Lending by professional Money Lenders, at high rates of interest, or under oppressive conditions as to repayment, and to Report theron'.…

A substantial once handsome volume, roughly 21.5 by 25cm, containing approximately 340 pages of lined paper, in tabbed alphabetical sections for the independent Agents which make up the bulk of the book, with three further sections to the rear for: Commission Agents; rival Fire Offices at home and abroad with the name of their main contact; and lastly the Assessors. Bound in full red calf covered boards, lettered and decorated in gilt and black, with marbled endpapers front and rear and stitched in cloth reinforcement to the gutters. Evidently privately printed and specially constructed at considerable expense in 1879, containing all the known existing information, liberally spaced between entries and in lined format to allow for easy subsequent manuscript additions & changes, which are plentiful. Stamped Mr. T. R. Thompson 1879 in gilt to the upper cover. Thompson can fairly confidently be identified from the genealogical records, citing his occupation simply as Insurance in the 1871 census, Commercial Clerk in 1881, 1891 and 1901, and Pensioned Insurance Clerk by 1911, living in the leafy Victorian commuter belt area of New Southgate. This was presumably the Sun Fire Head Office on Threadneedle Street, London's main contact book for the period, and the majority of the manuscript changes and additions are in Thompson's hand, which is reassuringly similar to that in which he filled in his 1911 Census form. The book remains quite firmly stitched together, though it was evidently used daily for decades, the leather is heavily marked and scuffed, rubbed through at the corners, which are bumped, heavily worn to the rear hinge and splitting along three quarters of the front hinge. The text block is grubby, marked and stained, with curling to the corners and tabs. From the archives of the RSA Insurance Group, with their pencil references to the early blanks. It would presumably have been one of Thompson's primary tasks to ensure that the Directory was kept up to date. The main section is arranged by geographical location, giving the name of the local agent and their occupation, ranging from Grocers, Ironmongers, Plumbers, Drapers and Printers, to Wine Merchants, Gentleman Farmers and Solicitors. The Commission Agents are arranged by surname, assigned one of six abbreviations according to a key provided at the front, with their address, occupations and other details, these printed much more closely as they were expected to vary less. The Fire Offices are arranged alphabetically by company name, with the main contact assigned one of 11 letters provided in a key at the start, giving their title within the company. The Assessors are few in number, widely spaced across 5 pages to the rear, vaguely in alphabetical order according to company or surname, seeming, despite their separate tab, something of an afterthought, and without much subsequent alteration. A superb primary historical record of one of Britain's first, most prestigious and pioneering insurance offices, showing their then still expanding network of provincial Agents, who sold policies & collected premiums across Britain & Ireland, in a constant state of flux. Also, an insight into the working practices of a highly experienced Victorian city clerk across several decades.…
