Sheffield Yearbook 1939 (appx 310 pages)

Condition - good, still securely bound and in fully working order.

Back cover is a full page advert for Suggs, described as

"Radio Experts since inception of broadcasting" (which surprised me, as I thought they were only sports goods)

and

"Sports Goods manufacturers & Outfitters"

Inside , yearbook index (over about 28 pages) ranges from Abbatoir to Zionist society (young).

plus many Advertisement pages scattered throughout, including many from National businesses, as well as -

Company Names include :

Preston chemists

arnold carter

m. Goldblum

J.J.Greaves & Son

Mattocks butchers

c.h.harrington sheet metal workers (with photo of shop front)

and , many, many more,

a fascinating Sheffield History book. Includes a record of principal events in 1938

and a list of brief obituaries.

For example, deaths in 1938 included

Arthur Ward (of T.W.Ward)

Archibald Cuff (surgeon)

Walter Walsh (of Walsh's)

and many others.

The lists of names inside these books is enormous - if your relative was involved in anything in Sheffield, there's a good chance he or she will be in here
