Great pictures! A credit to you for making them available. I hope to post some pictures soon if your little band of historians will allow me in. ( its not a closed shop is it?)
Cheers Samp

Samp. Excellent picture of the old sub- it looks surreal perched above the bus stop.
Unseen Liverpool
Well done Samp, you're off to a crackin' start! UNSEEN is the key word. I agree with Lindylou that the sub is surreal!

Typical holiday shot, Colwyn Bay, 1950's

Offbeat? decidedly, but as period pieces, this is what people had pics of!
