Biographical / Historical

In the course of his membership of the Association of Building Technicians (ABT) and its forerunner the Association of Architects, Surveyors and Technical Assistants (AASTA), Percy Johnson-Marshall collected a variety of general information such as membership details, membership cards, pamphlets and information on the association's activities. He appears to have attended the 1957 conference "Housing the city dweller" and retained both organisational details and copies of the papers presented.
