This deposit is part of the collection of business records acquired between the 1950s and the 1970s by Mr. Joe Bryson of Merseyside. In 1977 Mr. Bryson sold his collection of business records to Merseyside County Museums. In 1986 the status of Merseyside County Museums underwent a redesignation, and the service became the National Museums and Galleries on Merseyside. The Archives Department of this body has endeavoured to sort and list the Bryson collection, distributing non-Merseyside material to other record offices. These other record offices have, in turn, the authority to forward items to a more suitable repository, if closer examination of received material suggests such a course of action. Two documents {ACC/3420/002 and ACC/3420/006} were transferred to London Metropolitan Archives by Surrey Record Office in August 1994. The other six items now held at LMA were retained from a consignment of five boxes received from Merseyside, and LMA has itself redirected parts of the Bryson collection to London Borough archive departments, to Yorkshire, Staffordshire and back to Merseyside Museums and Galleries.
