Description: | This section comprises material generated by the Goodyear sales department in the course of its general activities, intended for internal distribution, and consist of records that appear fairly disparate in nature. The bulk of the papers date from the early period of the company's history in Britain, consisting of sales figures dating from the First World War period and the early 1920s, and template sales letters issued to existing or potential customers dating from the 1920s and 1930s. Much of this material was created by employees working at the Chelsea Wharf branch of the company, before the Wolverhampton factory was established in 1927.
The remainder of the material in this section date from the post-war period, and consists of papers relating to a Goodyear Sales Conference held in Buxton in 1957; posters created to encourage sales representatives to increase their productivity; and a set of circular memos sent to members of the sales department giving details of revisions and amendments to the sales manual which contained information about the functions, specifications and prices of products. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Temporal: | 1913-1974 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
