EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the year 1968, capturing a glimpse of the administration office at Huntsman House in Leeds, West Yorkshire. This iconic building served as the headquarters for Tetleys brewers, a renowned name in the drinks industry. The image showcases female workers diligently engaged in their tasks within the accounts department, utilizing Sumlock machines - an early precursor to calculators. The atmosphere exudes professionalism and dedication as these women navigate through their desk jobs with utmost precision. The furniture and interior design reflect the era's style, transporting us to a time when manual number crunching was an essential part of financial operations. Huntsman House stands tall as a metaphorical pillar representing British business prowess during this period.
