The 1887 Percy Lund catalogue can be found and downloaded here - https://babel.hathitrust.org/cgi/pt?id=gri.ark:/13960/t7dr6qh0q&...
He also published "Photographer's World", a monthly trade journal, and he also wrote a handbook at the turn of the century "Photography for Novices" published by W. Butcher & Sons.
There is a good history of Percy Lund, the man and the firm, here https://sites.google.com/site/leedsandbradfordstudios/home/percy-lund

A lot of designs were shared by studios. I have seen this one also used by Thomas Donovan of Brighton and Boak and Sons of Malton and Driffield.
