Hartlepool History Then & Now

Wynyard Road Co-op

What we know about this image :

In 1958 a very modern new Co-op was opened in Wynyard Road and this advert from the Northern Daily Mail describes how new this concept was. The prices are interesting too ! As a guide, 2/- was two shillings so the price of three jellies advertised was 10p and 1 shilling was 5p.

The shop claimed to bring 'American style shopping for the Owton Manor housewife'.
