Dates
- Creation: 1938-2001
Scope and Content
For the most part, this series consists of biographical information and drawings by the various industrial designers and design firms with whom Johnson worked. Some of these industrial designers were staff designers for Wear-Ever, Proctor Silex, or Hamilton Beach. The companies also sometimes hired outside industrial design firms to help in preparing concept design drawings for new products when they were pressed for time. Others of the industrial designers listed have no relation to the companies for whom Johnson worked - they were designers whom Johnson admired or whose work was of interest to him.
