The choir was formed in 1929, and consisted mainly of men and women occupied in the newspaper and print trades. Its founder and conductor was T. B. Lawrence (d 1953). The choir gave at least 20 public performances in England each year, and also toured European countries including Germany, Denmark and Sweden. The choir continued during World War II, but closed at the end of it, or shortly after, to be reformed as the Dorian Singers.

The archive was compiled by a member of the choir and was later donated to the Manuscripts Section of Guildhall Library in 2004. It was catalogued by a member of Guildhall Library staff in the same year. The Guildhall Library Manuscripts Section merged with the London Metropolitan Archives in 2009.
