The Potty Edwards What a Way to Get a Living
By Michele Lockwood-Edwards

The Potty Edwards What a Way to Get a Living is a nostalgic memoir told through the eyes of Mick, the youngest in the well-known 'Potty Edwards' market trading family. They were a family of china, pottery and glass merchants who sold their wares for many years in Sheffield's old Sheaf Market, known as the Rag and Tag.

The book is a tale of Mick's childhood based around Walkley and Rivelin during the 1930s and 1940s and his early induction into the family business and recollections of his school days. He recounts humorous incidents and details of the mavericks and colourful characters of market life taking us through his teenage years into the late 1960s when he was in business with his brother, Bill. Mick tells the story of the family business and his relationship with his siblings- Joe, who sold china dinner services and tea sets in Barnsley market with great flair and showmanship - Bill, Arthur, Bib and Agnes and his parents Arthur and Agnes.

The Potty Edwards What a Way to Get a Living will encourage anyone interested in market trading to get a proper job'.
