CTO PHOTO ALBUM | ||||||||
|
This photo album was made available in 1922. The dates on the front
refer to a three-day fund-raising bazaar, run by the CTO staff in aid of St
Bartholomew's and other local hospitals. Sweets, dolls, "a large amount of knitted costumes" and even "a doll's house and a number of pictures and porcelain of various kinds" gifted by the Queen were among the items that were up sale. There were also concerts and other side shows too, and the event ended up raising around £3000. Presumably, sales of this album (2s 6d - post free) - both at the event and to colleagues at other centres - made up some of that. A very different era to the one we live in today.
