Burroughs Wellcome & Company Letter Books

Burroughs Wellcome & Co, Private Letter Book 14

** The original item is too fragile to be produced. The microfiche version, reference AMS/MF/188, will be produced instead. **

Letterbook consisting of copies of internal and external letters sent by the head office of Burroughs Wellcome & Co, Snow Hill, March - June 1903.

Topics covered in this letterbook include the day-to-day running of the business, with detailed correspondence with the Burroughs Wellcome productions site in Dartford and also the branches in Sydney and Cape Town. Iinternal correspondence covers such administrative details as terms of employment and recruitment.

There is also correspondence with Burroughs Wellcome's Travelling Salesmen, such letters include discussion on such topics as sales techniques, the opening of new markets, the threat from rival companies and BW&Co products over which complaints have arisen.

This letterbook also contains material on the case of Burroughs Wellcome & Co v Thompson and Capper (referred in the letterbook to the 'Manchester case'). The case was brought about after BW&Co accused Thompson and Capper of manufacturing and selling their own pills as Tabloids, and so infringing on BW&C's trademarked term.

The letters to Henry Wellcome himself - written to him whilst he was on holiday - are detailed and offer a good summary of the range of issues covered in the rest of the volume. A great deal of these letter concern the 'Manchester case'.

Also included is correspondence with various publications over their infringement of BW&Co's 'Tabloid' trade mark.
