Premiums for design for a drinking fountain offered by the Metropolitan Drinking Fountain and Cattle Trough Association. The RSA assisted in the organisation of the competition. The object was to procure a design which was both attractive and practical. The competitors were asked to keep in mind certain considerations: the fountain was likely to be erected, free standing in a public park, open space or playground and should be capable of being carried out in natural stone but metal might be introduced in a suitable manner. The closing date of the competition was 31 July 1946 by which time 192 designs were received from 165 competitors. The assessors were Mr Oswarld P. Milne, Chairman of the RSA, Mr Keith Murray, Master of the Faculty of Royal Designers for Industry and Surgeon Vice-Admiral Sir Reginald Bond, Metropolitan Drinking Fountain and Cattle Trough Association.\n\nThe file includes administrative correspondence, a pamphlet detailing the terms and conditions of the competition, and the assessors report.\n\n
The RSA conducted a competition for the design of a painted wall panel to be executed for the main Entrance Hall of the Office Block in the National Cash Register Company's new building in Kingsway West, Dundee, Scotland.
