A new historic social history resource recently launched, recording local life from the 1880s through to the digital age, the Express & Star Photo Archive is a leading regional newspaper published by The Midland News Association Ltd (MNA) with different editions covering the Black Country and Staffordshire.
This site has been made possible by National Lottery funding and mainly covers 1935 to 1995. It includes some fascinating themed collections on steel and car industries and industrial relations. See this image of women working in manufacturing from the 1960s with its associated notes from the original photo librarian.
