Brownes Shop, Main Street, Ballinrobe

Christmas Boxes 1898, Invoice 1887, Invoice 1900

By Averil Staunton

Interesting to see the Christmas Boxes given by shopkeepers in the late 1800s and the prices of goods e.g. an excellent quality bicycle was £8.0.0 (eight pounds sterling)!

These itmes were kindly donated by Mr. Oliver Browne.
