Shopping with Mother, 1958,
Harry Wingfield

This is a trip to a world of nostalgia and a facing up to the fact that we have grown up.  The books have lost none of their appeal and in this show of some 120 of their images one can easily see why they remain popular with children of all ages.  Do go and see it – they even have some vintage books on sale.

Exploring Space, 1964,
B. Knight
