Waterlow & Sons (Printers)

[Chris Waterlow]

For those of you who might be interested, I have now finished writing the book about the Waterlow family and printing firm.  I am hoping thjat will be going to print sometime early in the new year and will let you know details as soon as I have them.

Hello,

My husband worked at Waterlows in London between 1961 and 1968 as a lithographic printer in the cheque printing department ,the address on his reference is "Waterlow House" Worship St EC2,Bishopgate

Cheers Janette

Excellent!  He should have known my father then.  He was called 'Mr Rupert' by most people in the firm and was, I believe, in charge of the cheque side of the firm.

Hi,

My Grand Father x 2 also worked at Waterlows like his 2 sons. They all came from Shoreditch where i believe some of the Waterlows did. I must say that the young guy looks very similiar to my grandfather. He started out as a printer becoming a printers overseer.

What i forgot to add was that the young guy in the suit by the van looks a bit like my grandfather.

Any ways his name was William Taylor, his son William Henry and Charles

I don't know if I am allowed to mention this, but earlier in this thread I mentioned that I was writing a book about the Waterlow family and Waterlow & Sons.  Well, Plummiegirl already knows about this for a couple of special reasons (many thanks again!), but the book is being published on 1 August 2013.  If you would like to know more then please get in touch.[/color]

I worked as a clerk in the offices of Waterlow & Sons at Dunstable in 1956-7. Unfortunately I have no photos, but I remember that an old railway line entered the back of the factory grounds and the was the remains of an old stationary steam engine situated outside the old part of the building that were used for printing  carbon paper. So the Dunstable site was built in the 1800's. All gone now I suppose.

Well I thought it was about time I revisited this forum as once again my grandfather's wandS books have resurfaced! I'm afraid I never got the chance to even start reading them let alone looking for photos or references to people. There are 14 books each with a minimum of 250 pages 
If anyone is still interested (or even remembers me posting on here a couple of years ago), if you can give me a specific year between 1940 and 1960 and any other relevant info I will sit/lay down and have a good read. It may take some time though - each one contains everything from gala dinners to christmas dinners and birthday bashes, summer trips, day trips, every conceivable sports awards, matches and league tables, retirements and new starters, competitions, quizzes and puzzles, photos and a whole host more - in fact more information than I've ever seen crammed into one year book!
Please email me at (*) if you have any requests and I'll do my best for you.
