‎Trollope & Colls Ltd, London, 1924. 1 volume folio, original cream boards with cloth spine,, 38*25 cm, 78 pp., with many full page photographic plates of buildings built by Trollops and Calls, all over the world, a very good copy.

‎"The object of this book is, in the first place, to review the past and present activities of the firm Trollope & Colls, and at the same time to direct attention to the fact, as will be seen from the following pages, that the scope of the Company's business is not limited to building and public works contracting at home and abroad, but embraces the highest class of decorative work and furnishing, both for ships and for buildings." .Trollope & Colls was one of the premier construction companies of its time, noted for many landmark buildings both in Great Britain and overseas. Some of their London projects were: the Institute of Chartered Accountants (1892), Claridges (1897), the Baltic Exchange (1903), and Lloyds Bank in Lombard Street (1931). They also designed rooms on luxury ocean liners, several of which are illustrated.The section on China is quite impressive, with the large folding panorama of the Bund and 10 additional photographs of significant buildings in Shanghai. The 10 photographs are: Octagonal Hall in the Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, Chartered Bank of India, Australia & China, Glen Line Building, Lay-Out of Plant, Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, Main Banking Hall, Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, Interior, Chartered Bank of India, Australia & China, Granite Front Nearing Completion, Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, The Completed Building, Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, Interior, Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, Another View of Interior, Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank, The Folding Panorama of the Bund shows the location of these buildings and the Yokohama Specie Bank, which the firm also constructed.‎
