Do you mean individual artists/engravers or companies? There are a number of books about the companies that produced British stamps - De La Rue, Perkins Bacon, Waterlow etc.

FYI, maybe there is a temporary issue with site www.Philbansner.com (and directory tree) but on trying getting various error messages resource not found, browser out of date and a few others.

There is a relatively new book on Martin Morck. He has engraved a lot of Scandinavian stamps. It is : "By Morck" written by Nordstrom. You can find it on Nordfrim's website. 41 Euros plus shipping. I have a copy and it's very nice.
