Posters & Postcards
There were so many dances, whist drives and other events in earlier years before TV took hold that posters, and the treats and prizes they offered, had to be eye-catching.
Bailiffgate Museum boasts a wide and growing collection. Note that these are low-resolution images but a high resolution version suitable for use in a wall poster up to at least A3 is also available for a small charge for any of these images. Please Contact us.
