When I Were a Nipper . . .

Yet more oddball nostalgia from the When I Were a Lad . . . series—this time focusing on the younger years
 

In these photos from a time when it was fun to play with a tangerine box and not an X-box, tots are dangled off buildings, put in the custody of dogs, given baths in the street, and used for unsuitable photo opportunities by unthinking parents. In turn, they torment the family pet by dressing it up in a sailor suit or getting it to act as a golf tee. This collection is full of the same delightfully pre-health & safety shots from the 1930s–1950s that made the first two books successful.
