NEWS FROM THE WAVERTREE SOCIETY (Jan.2004):

'LAST CALL' FOR OLD PICTURES (continued from previous page)

JACKSON'S SWEET-SHOP
204 Picton Road
The shopkeeper in the picture is William Walker Jackson, the grandfather of our Committee member Joyce Edwards.
Do you have pictures of any other local shops - or pubs?

Please contact us if you have any similar photographs which we could use

THE ABBEY CINEMA
under construction, 1938
This very unusual photo shows the building workers posing outside the future main entrance. It was given to us by the son of one of the bricklayers.
Do you have any similar pictures of 'work in progress'?

WAVERTREE GARDENS FC
1949-50
Reg Plunkett - the team member who emailed us this photo from Hertfordshire - would like to make contact with any of the other 'lads' in the picture who may remember him.
Do you have pictures of other local sports teams, church groups, etc.?

GRANARD ROAD
Street Party, silver jubilee 1977
We're sure that many people have pictures like this one. 'Archive' photos don't have to be 100 years old!

JULY 2004 UPDATE:
The book of Archive Photographs has now been published.
