About this Item

Very fine hardcover with dust jacket now protected in removable cover. This book brings the reader into the working world of the war-time years, and after [1942-52]. It was a period without central heating and television, but full of rugged conversation, rattling tramcars, messenger boy bicycles, horse-drawn deliveries, the ration book, black porter and long, long working hours for very few pounds, shillings and pence. Beautifully illustrated by Desmond McCarthy. Lovely copy. Collector's Item.
