"We build in steel" - advert issued by Banister, Walton Co Ltd, London & Manchester, 1945

What a marvellous work in board and pen line! Showing the 'old' days of steel frame construction when health and safety was less of a rigorous concern this bold graphic certainly gives an excellent impression of such demanding and danerous work.

 

This is another in a series of similar adverts issued by the company in the mid-20th century and who had addresses in London, Manchester & Birmingham. I'm inclined to think that Trafford Park was the centre of the company's works.
