Description: | Beginning at the time when Somers's had found its niche within the field of engine parts and other small forgings, the collection consists of order books, Nos 1-54, where each order includes a technical drawing with detailed specifications, as well as customer and delivery information. Each volume records 2000-3000 orders in 500 pages. There are also general specifications and tendering information. Occasionally, loose drawings, blueprints and letters are enclosed. The series is complete and self-contained; after order No 10000 in 1957, the firm switched to order sheets. The dates indicated are the dates when orders were received, not necessarily the dates when they were entered in the book. By the 1950s they were given a running order number. This collection was catalogued in July 2005 as part of the Pay and Power project, funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0/uk/ | Publisher: | Dudley Archives | Rights holder: | Dudley Archives | Temporal: | 1887-1957 | Source: | Black Country History | Identifier: | http://www.blackcountryhistory.org/colle... | Go to resource |
