Description: | Sequence of three order books dating from the late nineteenth century and very early twentieth century, together with a later order book dating from the 1950s and 1960s.
Entries in the three early order books consist of customer name and address and details of products ordered, including information about the dimensions, size and type of materials used. Many entries include ink drawings of the item ordered and some include specific details about the design and specification of the goods. Some entries give details of prices and instructions concerning delivery and packing. The products listed in this order book are largely small metal goods such as pans, bowls and other domestic items. Entries in the Cassada order book follow the same pattern except that the only type of goods described are iron Cassada pans of various types, and many of the orders are for overseas customers, with several being shipped to cities in Brazil.
Entries in the later order book include customer name and address, works pattern number, and particulars of the order and any specific information about manufacture and charges. Several automobile companies are amongst the customers. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Wolverhampton Archives | Rights holder: | Wolverhampton Archives | Temporal: | 1897-1963 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
