  • The Sign and Display Trades Union was founded as the National Union of Sign, Glass and Ticket Writers and Kindred Trades in 1918, changing its name in 1945. It catered for any worker engaged as a sign, glass, poster or ticket writer, or in any branch of subsidiary and allied trades. In 1949 the Northern Glass Workers' Employees' Association and the National Society of Decorative Glass Workers of the United Kingdom transferred their engagements to the Sign and Display Trades Union. In 1972 the union transferred its engagements to the National Society of Operative Printers, Graphical and Media Personnel. Reference: Hugh M. Pollock, 'Development and structure of a small trade union...the Sign and Display Trades Union 1918-72', University of Warwick MA dissertation, 1974.
