A Century of Steam – from the sound collection of P&O Heritage Archive, a recently conserved copy of a BBC radio programme broadcast on the National Programme on the 6th of October 1937 to celebrate the Centenary of the P&O shipping line, (originally produced by Felix Felton).
The audio material was recovered from eleven 12-inch acetate cellulose-lacquer grooved 78rpm radio transcription discs, conserved in the P&O archive, and digitally transferred. 
Image shows the company’s new ship, Stratheden - her maiden voyage to Brisbane began on Christmas Eve 1937, and she continued in company service until 1964.
