Description: | This notebook belonged to William George Hathaway, who was a brass instrument maker at the Salvation Army instrument factory in St. Albans. He specialised in making euphoniums, baritones and trumpets for Salvation Army Bandsmen. Here, Hathaway recorded his daily activities and time at the factory. This page records repair work and euphoniums that Hathaway built. The records include instrument serial numbers and also give information about performance practice: both high pitch (H.P.) and low pitch (L.P.) instruments were being built during the 1960s. The notebook also shows critical dimensions for the baritones that Hathaway made. Detailed technical drawings would have existed for each type of instrument, but a maker's workbench notebook served as a quick and easily accessible reference. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Horniman Museum and Gardens | Rights holder: | Hathaway family | Subjects: | work | Temporal: | circa 1965 | Source: | Horniman Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
