Football Programmes / old companies.

Andrew Butler kindly sent me these pictures from his large collection of old Boston United Football programmes, it is interesting to see which firms have gone out of business and I have shown a few that are advertised in the Programmes.




The only ones above remaining in 2012 are The Britannia Inn and H.H. Adkins


Loveley's cafe in the Market Place.


Hutson's, 11, Wide Bargate on the left. This building was at one time the Woolpack Inn.


A 1927 Programme.


The Red Lion Hotel.

Cheshire's can just be seen on the extreme right.






King's Cafe.




Hayward and Towell's South Square premises.
