Enter the world of the 1950's child. From the corner sweet shop to the playground, to boys pretending to be spitfires and Rin Tin Tin, frozen jubblies and the Ford Popular. Tony Redding brings back a flood of memories as he takes us back to 1950's London.

Why was growing up in the 1950's so different and special? If you are in your early 60's you will know the answers. If you remember cream soda, wagon wheels, snake belts, Rin Tin Tin, Robin Hood and Popeye, this book is for you.

If you were born long after 1960, here is the world of your parents or grandparents, set out in all its 1950s glory: "six of chips", Eddie Cochran, The Shadows, smog, bomb sites, a caning at school, Penny for the guy and British bulldog.

Turn the pages and shift into a time when you could press the 'button B' and get your money back, whiten your teeth with Pepsodent and listen to adults criticising the police for failing to lock up enough teddy boys. Enjoy!

Nice quality sweater, well made and soft.
Size: Large, Color: Pure Beige
I love this sweater - but I bought it just in time for summer, so it won't get much use until fall! It fits great, it is really soft and the overall quality is quite good. I plan to buy another one in another color as well.

Nice casual looking sweater
Size: Small, Color: Pure Black
I purchased the black/cream inset sweater in a small. I usually wear a small. I fits loose, but NOT baggy. I like the loose fit. The sweater feels so soft. Nice looking sweater. Very happy with the sweater, but could have ordered a medium for a boxier fit.

Good quality & trendy color sweater
Size: Large, Color: Pure Apricot
This sweater is very soft, light and very suitable for keeping mild warm at the temperature of 20c or inside an air conditioning room. Particularly, the trendy color for 2026 in brown suede jacket, this sweater is real good matching item! I like it! 😍😍😍
