This is interesting – the preceding week’s paper hasn’t been scanned in to the archive yet, so we have no details. From the Lichfield Mercury, Friday, 7th November 1952.

Here’s an interesting quick one spotted in a recent addition to the archives. Peter ‘Pedro’ Cutler spotted this group photo in the Lichfield Mercury, of Friday, 7th  November 1952.

Is anything known about this organisation? They’re holding their first annual banquet and ball, and the Brownhills and District Licensed Trade Association Ladies’ Auxiliary is a fine title indeed. Was it a longstanding group? Perhaps they still exist? Is anyone recognised in the crowd? What did the group usually do, where did they meet?

Answers, as ever, are welcome. Comment here, or BrownhillsBob at Googlemail dot com.

Thanks to top archive botherer Peter ‘Pedro’ Cutler for the spot.
