Xmastide 2011

Christmas time is usually depicted with a glowing nostalgic past that nobody actually remembers. The people drawn from Dickensian costume drama, the stagecoaches, candles and robins. We'll draw your attention to a set of images from the National Co-operative Archive published on the Archives Hub website.

Now we have the weblog back posting again there is a lot to come in 2012, oh yes, lots of historical posts and current developments. Plus 2012 is the UN International Year of Co-operation and there will events happening in Manchester.

Meanwhile you can check out Christmas at the Co-op from the Archives Hub for images as shown above.
