Latest Acquisitions (Nov 2023)
Explore some of the latest acquisitions we’ve added to the archive…
A generous donation of motorcycling magazines from Mark Walker in Edgeley, very close to the archive.
Some fascinating images from the history of Leeds, in Schofields Golden Jubilee booklet.
The Original Clock Almanack – a Yorkshire dialect magazine.
An innocuous “1957” volume can often hide much more exciting stuff……in this case La Cucina (“The Kitchen”) magazine from Italy, bound with covers and wonderful colour advertisements.
A Guerlain perfume advertisement from the November 1974 issue of Harpers & Queen magazine. A classic example of 1970s advertising: a striking colour image and short, bold copy.
From the 1949 Yorkshire Textile Industry Annual, a rather special advertisement for us: our archive is in the old factory of Bolton’s Superheater & Pipe Works Ltd.
