Publications

William Sugg was convinced of the importance of advertising and the business produced vast numbers of leaflets, brochures, fliers and booklets over his lifetime.  Products from many of these have places in most of the sections of this website.  After his death in 1907 there was quite a shift towards more standardisation in publications although the reference numbers for the different groups of products were retained.  In addition, for many years, a new booklet was produced every year.  Because of the popularity of the Sugg lighting products and the literature as collectors items in their own right, I reproduce here the covers and dates of many items which could be considered collectables, to assist with identification.

Mr Elton worked in the sales department and was clearly not going to let anyone take his catalogues away!  As it happens he was right - they survived!
