Photographer and writer Peter Marshall began documenting the area which would become the site of the London Olympics in 1981 – from compulsory purchases of parcels of land – capturing ‘Stratford Marsh area close to the main Olympic stadium, now largely transformed out of existence.’ A sleepy light industrial area which now finds itself latched onto and part of gentrified London – his photos are an invaluable record of what was in our words ‘before.’ A part of London that was even left behind in the Victorian era.
Café Royal Books publishes limited edition Photobooks coveted by fans and collected by major institutions. The Zines focus on British documentary photography. Café Royal is run and founded by Craig Atkinson.
Craig explains ‘My aim is to create a focussed and complete archive of British documentary photography. I publish roughly 70 titles each year with a small edition ‘archive box’ every 100th title. These archive boxes are aimed at major collections, libraries and museums — helping to increase the visibility of the work and making the books publicly accessible for as long as possible. Collectors are wide and varied but include, MoMA NY, Harvard University, Oxford University, Cambridge University, The British Library, The Hyman Collection, Martin Parr Foundation, TATE, V&A / National Art Library’.
