Attending to fixtures and fittings

Title

Attending to fixtures and fittings

Description

The conversion of the Geological Museum – then on Jermyn Street in St James’s, London – into an appropriate venue for the 1933 World Monetary and Economic Conference required the employment of a range of people to attend to the venue’s fixtures and furnishings. This was important both for the comfort of delegates, and to ensure that the venue conveyed a sense of prestige equal to the occasion.
