My article considers how ‘originality and imitation’ in design is perceived as an intrinsic quality, but may be better understood as a relative quality when viewed from the perspective of trade negotiations between developed and developing economies. Here, US National Archives / UK Public Record Office trade archives 1950-1960 are paralleled with more recent Sino-American trade tensions. The article concludes by arguing the circumstances under which formerly ‘imitative’ products are later perceived to be ‘original’.
