Mystery Publication (1928)

Recommended Posts

I have part of a publication from 1928, it's a small portion of a page and it includes pictures of the junction of Ecclesall Road and also Moorhead as it appeared in 1863.

It is dated December 1928.

Now for the mystery : it is from a publication called "Sheffield Enterprise".

I can find no trace of this, can anyone else please shed any light ?

There is a possibility (from searching via Google) that it might be an American publication, out of Sheffield, Alabama.

Sinatra/Rat Pack photos seem to come into it ...

The reverse is of no use to us but is included for the sake of completeness.

I doubt very much that this is an American publication, why would they publish scenes of Sheffield and a typical Yorkshire cartoon. I believe it is a Sheffield weekly or daily issue. Did you notice the black line that runs under the name of the paper on both pages, each line has a different kind of break in it and this identified which press printed it. Back to Alabama, they only picked Sheffield as their town name so they could proclaim that the steel they produced was MADE IN SHEFFIELD.
