An advert from The Colliery Guardian newspaper, Saturday 3rd Feb 1866.

It sounds like it could be an early Del Boy advert on the side of the Reliant van "West Hartlepool, Christiania, Norway....and King Street Wigan!

Christiania was the old name for Oslo. The props would presumably be exported from there, imported at Hartlepool and sold in Wigan
