Question:

Where can I find a picture from the 1970/80s of an office with people working at their desks like in 9 to 5?

I am trying to find this type of picture to demonstrate the differences between workplaces of the past and now. I have seen images like this in movies like 9 to 5 and in Superman where there is a large room with many people working independently at desks. Any specific picture sources that show office type work environments with no collaboration would be great. I've already tried Google image searches and Flickr.


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: You can find a lot of pictures on the Smithsonian website here: http://www.smithsonianeducation.org/educ... , specifically http://www.smithsonianeducation.org/educ... (1988) and http://www.smithsonianeducation.org/educ... (1987). There are also lots of older photos of offices on that website.

I also found this from 1965: http://www.metoffice.gov.uk/corporate/pr...

Here is a newsroom from the 1970s-1980s. There aren't any overviews, but there are lots of interesting shots. http://www.nyradionews.com/wabc/picture....
