hello,
Do someone Know if in B,ham, from about 1780 to 1820 there were paper flower sellers?
Regards r.puccini
 
Bit late in the day, but my parents used to make crepe paper roses and carnations in the 1950s, they were dipped in hot wax of various colours and were sold at markets on the run up to Xmas. Cradley Heath, Warwick, Stratford, West Bromwich to name just a few.
