A vintage single broadsheet leaf from the Daily Mail newspaper, dated Friday, August 25, 1978. This ephemeral item comprises two printed pages: the Femail Fashion section and the City section. The fashion page features a prominent photographic feature titled So we went where by Kathy Phillips, documenting Israeli swimwear by Gottex and jewellery by Bat-Ami Varsano, set against the backdrop of Jerusalem. The reverse City page is led by an article by Deputy City Editor Neil Collins titled Place no trust in shrinking discounts. The leaf includes a variety of period advertisements, including recruitment notices for the Royal Navy and trainee computer programmers, alongside commercial ads for Start-rite school shoes and Guardian Building Society. The paper is currently preserved within a clear plastic wrap.
