Frederick Restall Ltd.

Sorry for taking so long, but I just happened to be working on the film reel today, and have digitised the very short clip of the frontage of Restalls from some time in the 1930s. It can be found here:

This is an unlisted Youtube link (effectively private). I would like to remove the film after about two weeks, to keep my channel tidy. If it is of interest please download it for your use before then. There are two versions, the first is stablised and croped a little as a result, the second is as it came.

Only just seen this
i did some work there in 70s on the loading bay just before i joined up
all i recall in loading bay was the plastic shells/seats all colours
i did see the completed chairs in dispatch
i recall the West Indian foreman only because he bore my name
 
I moved so many of those plastic seat shells to be able to carry out my work im sure they were not made at Restall
the name Remploy comes to mind as my plastic waterbottle in Army was stamped Remploy which i dumped in favour of
aluminium 45 patt bottle
