Freshly digitized archive records
The Swiss Economic Archives (SWA) are digitizing selected holdings. Interesting documents are now accessible online on the e-manuscripta platform. Here are some highlights.
Among others, the following fonds have been digitized since the beginning of the year:
Archives Gerber, Adolphe Louis, Strohhutfabrikant, 1827-1899 (SWA HS 207)
Company archives Société Immobilière d'Algérie SA (Charles Zahn-Sarasin) (SWA HS 414)
Further ledgers of Christoph Burckhardt & Cie bzw. Bourcard Fils et Cie (SWA HS 420)
Company archives Schappe AG (SWA HS 442 M 17), coloured plans of the factory and houses in Arlesheim
In-house magazine (1963-1977) and Employee magazine (1973-1978) of Suter+Suter architects (SWA HS 510)
Minutes of Chemische Fabrik Uetikon, 1899-1861 (SWA PA 578)
As part of the Basel University Library's ink corrosion project, holdings from the SWA are also being digitized and processed. As the first results of this project, 3000 files with business letters from the company archives Forcart-Weis & Söhne (Württembergerhof) (SWA HS 258) (textile industry) are now live; we are currently in the year 1829.
