Edward Thompson paper mill Sunderland

I used to tip paper reels next door to there, in the old Domtar paper mill at Hendon, it might even have been part of the same group. The reels were a regular back load from Dartford Papermill. As far as I remember Edward Thompson printed and distributed bingo books.
An old workmate from Waughs went to work there, Jimmy Searle, known to all as “the Black Prince” for reasons that were obvious . Regards Kev. EDIT. I thought I’d better add, he never spent much on soap. :unamused: :unamused:
