Manuscripts
This collection primarily consists of negatives, newsletters, and printed matter related to Hydro-Aire, a division of Crane Co. The two Hydro-Aire newsletters, HYDRO-AIREings and HY-LITES, spans from 1952 through 1974. There are approximately 400 35 mm. negatives and contact sheets. Photographs of interest may be a strike by Lockheed Aircraft Corporation employees, District 727, in October 1956. Also, there appears to be an ad campaign in response to a letter from William K. Kinner, where he accuses Hydro-Aire of being an "unprogressive company" and failing to take "total responsibility" for their braking system. The subject files include material related to two movies, advertisements, and a name change for the "airbus."
