Ettridge worked at domestic appliance manufacturers such as Electrolux, Hotpoint, Morphy Richards, Moulinex and Swan for over 45 years before his retirement.[1]

The collection, held in the Library's Business & IP Centre, includes:

  • Company brochures.
  • Design manuals.
  • Product samples.
  • Ettridge's own technical drawings.
