Title: Congratulations card, 1968 [Go to resource]
Description: "The Good Old Days" was the BBC's long running Victorian music hall variety show. The master of ceremonies was Leonard Sachs, father of actor Andrew Sachs. His banter with the audience and banging of a gavel to bring on each act was a popular feature of the show. The audience who came in free as long as they were dressed in Victorian or Edwardian and they joined in and sang along to musical hall songs. Some Huntley & Palmers cakes of the 1960s were iced with images of musical hall stars or Edwardian style objects. These designs were named 'The Good Old Days'.
