Daily Herald Photograph: Assembling televisions at Southend-on-Sea factory

One photograph of a male technician assembling television sets, titled 'Millions more view television this week'. Caption on back reads: 'At eighto'clock next Saturday evening the most powerful television station in the world will begin transmitting from SUTTON COLDFIELD (WARWICKSHIRE), putting television within the reach of 9,000,000 more people. It is estimated that 30,000 new sets will be switched on from the Cotswolds to the Cheshire Plains and from Nottingham to Leeds and makers of television sets are working all-out to meet this new demand. Picture taken at a Southend-on-Sea factory where television sets are being produced on a large scale shows:- The empty cabinet arrives on the assembly bench from an over-head conveyor and the completed chassis is carefully slipped into position'.
