Taveners Olde English Fruit Drops : advert issued by Tavener Rutledge Ltd. in : Liverpool Official Industrial Handbook : Liverpool Corporation : E. J. Burrow & Co. Ltd. : nd [c.1955]

            An advert for a product that brings back many memories for me; these were my Grandad Clegg's favourite sweets and I can recall the black bin with this colourful label from the early 1960s before he died in 1965. It was issued by Tavener Rutledge Ltd. and is seen in Liverpool's c.1955 Official Industrial Handbook. This lavish book has an immense amount of information as to the work of the Corporation, the city's amenities and services as well as discriptions of the port, shipping services and industrial activities. These included the three municipally developed suburban trading estates at Aintree, Kirkby and Speke.

The company had a history dating back to a shop, run by one John Tavener, that grew into a major confectionery company. Although ownership of the brand has changed hands many times it is only this year, 2024, that the works have finally apparently closed.
