Description: In many ways this has been the easiest book of all to compile. Last year, as we delved into people's archives to find photograph's for "The Black Country at War", we came across so many wonderful memory-evoking souvenirs of life in the area that it seemed almost criminal not to produce a follow up. So here it is, for your enjoyment - 112 pages crammed with nostalgia, your personal peek into other people's lives and, who knows, maybe a reminder of your past too. We've peered into faded photographs hoping to find someone we know - perhaps that very picture is here again for you to enjoy. You might even discover a slightly younger self looking back at you! Certainly you are bound to find something that strikes a chord, a poster that may have been glimpsed before, a half forgotten building and, I hope, the odd surprise or two to savour.
