Items related to A 1950s Southampton Childhood
Synopsis
The 1950s was a time of regeneration and change for Southampton. For children growing up during this decade, life was changing fast. They still made their own toys and earned their own pocket money, but, on new television sets, Andy Pandy (1950) and Bill and Ben (1952) delighted them. With rationing discontinued, candy was on the menu again, and, for children, Southampton life in the 1950s was sweet. If you saw a Laurel and Hardy performance at The Gaumont Theatre, or made dens out of bombed out buildings, then you’ll thoroughly enjoy this charming and nostalgic account of the city.
