Book excerpt: Excerpt from Alaska Basketry Declaring itself to the public through this, its first publication, the Beaver Club seeks to place itself in that group of idealists that not only believes in dreams, but also believes that by patient, sincere and reverent effort, dreams may be made to come true. There is a dream that many have held and toward the realization of which many have labored - and it is the dream of a thing made glorious through the patient, perceiving labor of those who produce it. To such a vision, and to the manifold works that have been done in the striving towards its realization, the world owes the most of whatever it can boast which is, beyond all else, rare and lovely and infinitely to be desired. In its present and future work, the Beaver Club hopes to add, from Oregon, from the Pacific Northwest, a distinctive and valuable contribution to humanity's store of things rare and beautiful and, as nearly as possible, perfect. The perfection sought is not the infinitely reduplicated perfection that comes through the infallible accuracy of machines, but the perfection that comes through conscious and zealous artistic effort of persons inspired by a desire to attain to a high and sweet ideal. The books of the Beaver Club possibly may never come to be loved and sought after because they are the most beautiful of their kind in the world; but the Beaver Club hopes to make them appreciatively beautiful to the world because their production is to the Club, above everything else, a labor of profound love.
