Rag-N-Bone Man Poster

The Rag-N-Bone Man

At the end of the 1939 - 1945 War, the local people of Swindon would turn their hands to anything in order to make a living and feed their families. Peter Bint from Shaw near Swindon lost his father many years ago, but quite recently also lost his mother. When he was going through her effects he came across a Poster that reminded him just how resourceful his father was. This Listing is to show that Poster and the delightful wording of what was known as the "Rag-N-Bone" man.
