Description

A window display in McLeod & Svendsen, an electrical appliance store once located on the corner of Kimbolton Road and Manchester Square. The exact date is unknown, but it is likely the photograph was taken during the late 1950's or the early 1960's, due to the PhiliShave electric razors and portable (transistor) radio advertising displayed. A note on the back of the photograph reads: McLeod & Svendsen's shop in the Square, Feilding. The frontage remains on new building in the Square today.
This photo was supplied by Bernard Svendsen, whose father Albert Svendsen co-owned the business from May 1923.
