Joe Scarborough Signed Art Print Mr E.G. Summerskill General Trader
£100.00
This is an exclusive signed print taken from an original painting of Mr E.G. Summerskill General Trader by the famous Sheffield artist Joe Scarborough.
"Although the name has been changed to stop me from getting a thick ear, Mr. Summerskill was a well-known figure in Sheffield after the war. Think Walker from Dad's Army or a 1950s Del Boy. If you wanted to buy or sell goods there were of questionable provenance or quality, Summerskill was your man. Respected by the people but reviled by the authorities, he was curiously necessary. He kept the wheels on the black market cart until legitimate commerce caught up.”
