WHEN I WAS YOUNG, THE FAVOURITE DRINK WAS MARSH'S SARSAPARILLA , OR " SASS " ,WHICH MUST HAVE SOLD MORE BOTTLES THAN ALL THE OTHER FLAVOURS OF POP PUT TOGETHER. THIS IS A REMINDER OF THOSE DAYS , PHOTOGRAPHED AT THE JUNCTION OF DALKEITH STREET AND ABBEY ROAD. I CAN'T DECIPHER THE TOP PART, BUT YOU CAN SEE QUITE CLEARLY " SAY MARSH'S " .I ' M CERTAIN ONE OF THEIR SLOGANS WAS " DON'T SAY SASS, SAY MARSH'S "
BILL WAKEFIELD - BARROW IN FURNESS.
