Vintage Colour Guide to Compton Acres, Poole

Very much in the style and design of the Pitkin Pictorial range this appears to be an independently published official guide to the gardens of Compton Acres in Poole, Dorset. Judging by the telephone numbers used in the book and the advert on the back inside cover it would appear to date from the early 1970s, although considerable portions of the text appear more dated. Regardless, it is fully illustrated with many colour and b & w pictures and is in very good condition with only very light wear.

Vintage Green Preserve Pot Poole Pottery

 

Simple green (not sure of the colour - tourquoise?) preserve pot from Poole Pottery. The backstamp dates it to between 1967 and 1972 but I'm not sure of the design. I suspect it may have had a lid at one time and that would have helped nail it down. It's in excellent condition.
