Vintage Argos! :-)
Have a look at this flickr page which contains photography of vintage argos shopping catalogues! Its so weird seeing the prices and older items that were on sale then! :-)
Maybe a new photo project for someone, doing something similar but with current brochures etc...

Thanks for the link Karen,

The pictures bring back memories of looking through the catalogue, just before Christmas and birthdays, especially the Horby and Scalextric pages :-)

Regards

Nick

Some of the stuff looks really dated but some seem so timeless! :-) I liked looking at the camera pages, all old canons and polaroids!
