I loved Bitten By Witch Fever (https://www.lucindahawksley.com/books/bitten-by-witch-fever/) which wasn't just eye-opening about the use of arsenic in wallpaper but a lovely object in its own right.
@sarble that Morris quote hasn’t aged well has it, but then he did have shares in the Devon consols mine.
"You might die from our wallpaper but it'll be a beautiful death"
@sarble indeed ! 🤣
