- Summary:
- Most of the early material in this collection was acquired in the course of the 1941-42 Industrial Survey carried out by Mass-Observation, which resulted in the publication of People in Production (Advertising Services Guild 'Change' series, No. 4, 1942) and War Factory (1943). The later part of the collection is not extensive: between 1945-49 there are reports on strikes and disputes and there is a single file from 1955 at the end of the sequence. The small amount of pre-war material has been integrated on the whole with the rest of the collection, and will be found under subject headings, as it would appear to have been collected as background material for the Industrial Survey of 1941-42. There are much fuller collections of pre-war material in other Topic Collections held in the Archive.
