Who’s up for a feast of saveloy memories - with pies, pasties and much more thrown in.
We have it all in a look back at a selection of Dicksons reminders from South Tyneside spanning from 1973 to 2017.
The Shields Gazette photo memories show staff in Prince Edward Road, Middlefields, and Jarrow. Dicksons has hosted visits from MPs and civic dignitaries.
It’s a big milestone and we are marking it with this tribute to a South Tyneside iconic company which is now in its 73rd year.
Have a look and see if you can recognise any of the people in the picture, or in our video which we recorded for the company’s 70th birthday 3 years ago. And why not share your own memories by emailing [email protected]
