Mark & co Receipt of 1914
The enterprising Jewish immigrant Michael Marks, who launched the M&S retail chain from a penny bazaar, never knew what a mochalatte was, and might have been similarly bemused by an Americano.
He sold scrubbing brushes and carbolic soap to the working folk of Leeds from his humble stall in Kirkgate Market with the catchphrase “don’t ask the price; it is a penny”.
Almost 130 years later Marks & Spencer has opened a permanent heritage stall close to the same spot — part wallow in nostalgia and part hard-nosed retail opportunity. Instead of everyday hardware, staff in flat caps will be selling
