Official Handbook -- Grand Bazaar & Fancy Fair -- To Be Held In St. Peter's New School, Swinton -- Thursday, Friday, And Saturday -- May 3rd, 4th, and 5th, 1906

By: N/A

Price: £20.00

Publisher: Swinton, 1906

Seller ID: 37994

Binding: paperback

Condition: Poor in Poor dust jacket

Dk red, thick paper wrappers; worn. Very fragile -- binding in very poor condition; some pp loose, but all present. B/w illustrations. Fascinating contemporary adverts. The bazaar was to raise money for rebuilding the school, and if the Official Handbook is anything to go by it must have been grand indeed. Sobering to think that in less than a decade many of the school's alumnae would have been marching off to face an uncertain future on the Western Front.
