Signwriter in Shrewsbury

 

Barbara Willocks is pictured here with her father outside the Willocks premises in Barker Street, Shrewsbury. 

He was a painter and signwriter, and the photo is possibly from the 1920s or 1930s. 

The photo was loaned by Mrs Barbara Jones – as she later became – to Shrewsbury author and historian David Trumper, who in turn showed it to us.
