Photographs of the EMIDEC 1100 computer made by EMI which had been installed at Sainsbury's head office at Stamford House to automate certain routine office work (eg stock/ordering calculations). It was Sainsbury's first computer. The photographs also feature the Samastronic line printer which was used as part of the system. Some of the photographs feature in JS Journal June 1961.
