Old books for members of industry and trade associations
Many modern-day industry and trade associations have members interested in the historical roots of their business sector. Set out below are over 250 British professional bodies whose members operate in business areas where opportunities exist to acquire relevant early or historical books.
Clickable links to old books currently available from antiquarian and secondhand booksellers across Britain in a few suggested search areas are provided for each association, based on keywords provided by the booksellers themselves. Of course, these are merely suggestions - use the search box in the left-hand column to enter any special search-area of your own.
If anything catches your eye, you'll be purchasing direct from the individual UK bookseller offering the book for sale and not from Industrial and Trade History.
The images are photographs from the 1920s, printed in gravure, of various tradesmen, craftsmen and industries - click on any one to enlarge it. Any of these may be used to provide links to this website.
