With the passing of time I wonder now if my recollection is wrong but I'm sure that when I was kid in the late 1940s to early 1950s tiny loaves (about a couple of inches or so in l/w/h, probably a bit longer) were sold for 1/4d (a farthing in old money) at Daddy Clayton's (?) bread shop on Osmondthorpe Lane. They were just baked and very nice I recall. I remember Fullertons in Morley in the fifties selling mini Hovis for (I'm sure) 1d. I used to deliver bread in my teens for Newboulds from Bradford. When I was on one of the Leeds journeys I remember delivering to a café near the market on Boar Lane, can't remember the name, but they were also outside caterers.The various types of bread, other than white sliced that come to mind are Prairie Gold, American Top Grade, County Brown, and fruit malt loaves. Newboulds were part of Sunblest, so we also delivered Wagon Wheels, and Burtons biscuits.
