One photograph titled 'Brussels keep on sprouting'. Caption on the back reads; 'Mr. T. R. Barnett picks some Brussle sprouts in his garden at Wolverhampton, Staffordshire, from a plant which has grown to 6ft 3in high and which has already yielded him four pounds of sprouts. Jack may have used magic beans to grow his giant pantomine beanstalk but Mr. Barnett thinks that the secret of his plant's growth is the manure of hop mash from a local brewery.' A stamp on the back reads: 'Comprehensive Service'.
