Chris Ford from Ireland has been in touch as follows;
I am trying to find out about the corporate history of
Johnnie Walker in the 1940s and 1950s . My Grandfather Albert Green was
Director of Sales then Managing Director about this time and I wanted to know
the history since I never met him. The history of the great race to sell whisky
to neighbouring countries following American's Prohibition is particularly
interesting. I recently attended a talk in a Dublin Distillery about this and
realized my Grandfather was part of this historic race. I have many items that
he acquired or was given during his career including a Remington saleman's
typewriter and Kilmarnock Grandfather clock.
