'My First Job' - Accompanying Book

Within the pages of this publication (PDF linked below), you will find a selection of memories compiled by the Age Exchange Company, taken from interviews with Greenwich pensioners about their experiences starting work during the 1920s and 30s. The memories have been categorized by the various types of work that they refer to i.e. catering, needlework, office work, factory, trades. The stories told here are bursting with nostalgia, fine-lined with wonderful detail, and really get to the heart and struggle of being a working-class Briton all those years ago.
