Description: | Terry "Tosher" Bell (b 1943) grew up in Hackney in the 1940s and 1950s. Here, in conversation with Lynda Pearce of the "Up the Manor" project, he speaks about his experience growing up in poverty. Of particular note is his mother?s practice of routinely pawning his brothers' suits, redeeming them only when they were to be worn. Also of interest is his description of the diet that people in this situation used to live on. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bishopsgate Institute | Rights holder: | Bishopsgate Institute | Subjects: | work London at War Home and Family | Temporal: | 2008 | Source: | Bishopsgate Institute | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
