Description: | The Transport Salaried Staffs Association (T.S.S.A.) is an independent, UK-based trade union for the transport and travel trade industries. This bone china plate commemorates historic episodes involving the T.S.S.A. and its members, including A G Walkden (Association Secretary, 1906-36), the 1901 Taff Vale judgement, the 1919 recognition by railway companies, Women's recognition in 1916, the 1947 nationalisation and the General Strike of 1926.
Formed in 1897, the T.S.S.A. was originally known as the National Association of General Railway Clerks. The name was changed in 1951, following changes in the transport industry after the Second World War. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Power and Politics Transport Work | Temporal: | 1997 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Creator: | Commissioner : TSSA | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
