The Archive of Art and Design at the Victoria & Albert Museum contains Britain's foremost collection of primary source material relating to art and design, particularly of the twentieth century. Established in 1978, the Archive holds over 200 archives created by individual artists, craftspeople and designers, and businesses and societies involved in the manufacture and promotion of art and design products. Each archive is described in detail in the Guide , with information about its creator, its contents, and related sources held both inside and outside the V&A Museum. It is an invaluable reference text for everyone with an interest in studying British art and design. The Archive's holdings range from fashion retailers (Biba), to interior designers (Eileen Gray), to graphic artists (Eric Fraser), to furniture manufacturers (Heal's). The Archive also includes Sir Eduardo Paolozzi's Krazy Kat Arkive of Twentieth Century Popular Culture.
