Joining with the Central Office of Information (COI) to celebrate their 60th Anniversary, the National Archives have featured a selection of some of the most memorable and influential COI public information films that cover some fasinating events from Britain’s post-war history. The collection is particularly strong in coverage of films from the 1970s, including the famous ‘Charley Says’ and ‘Green Cross Code’ campaigns.
