Co-op Cocoa |
| The Co-operative Wholesale Society came into existence in 1863
in a small warehouse in Manchester. By 1873 they had started the manufacture of
various items including biscuits, boots, shoes and soap. This expanded rapidly
and soon they had purchased tea plantations in Ceylon. Over many years the
Societies expanded into a large group covering many areas. The Model T shown
here carries an advertisement for Cocoa which would have been seen on tin-plate
signs during the 1920’s and 1930’s.
