Sawyer's seminal work was first published in 1951. It offers
straightforward practical instruction on the tried and tested
methods of plastering as it was practised in the traditional way
before the Second World War. It includes very useful drawings of
the different features, including the tools, running moulds and
geometry for setting out. The chapter describing running mouldings
in situ will be of particular interest to the conservation
practitioner since this method is now rarely used, but is
considered the correct way to repair historic plasterwork. Jeff
Orton and Tim Ratcliffe have provided a valuable Introduction to
the book which not only gives an interesting background to the
author but also comments on the materials or methods which are no
longer considered appropriate.
