One Jump Ahead

A film from 1967 about technology in the British postal service.

How electronically-controlled machines have been developed to segregate the different classes of mail and send them ready for dispatch to their destination, as demonstrated at the Norwich GPO.

This film was used as a BBC2 Trade Test Colour film.
