July 2020 Update

June 2020 update I’ve just updated the database with around 250 new items from 1915. As well as correcting a number of typos I’m progressively adding location information to company fields. It’s unfortunate that UK Post Codes as we now … Continue reading

May 2020 Update
1948 updated – 953 new entries. To be honest I’d forgotten about this update until I was checking some (old) folders for stray ads ready for indexing and discovered about 50% of the entries for 1948 hadn`t been entered – … Continue reading
