EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing collection of butcher's receipts dates back to the early 20th century, belonging to J. Jeffery of Silverstone, Northamptonshire. The receipts, spanning the years 1910, 1929, and 1939, offer a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing evidence of the types and quantities of livestock that were sold and purchased during this time. The handwritten receipts reveal a variety of transactions, with cattle, beef, mutton, and sheep being the primary items listed. The meticulous handwriting of the butcher, J. Jeffery, can be seen on each receipt, documenting the weight and price of each animal or cut of meat. These receipts offer a unique insight into the agricultural economy of Silverstone and Northamptonshire during this period. They also provide a personal connection to the past, as we can imagine the families who purchased these items and the butcher who sold them. The receipts serve as a reminder of the importance of local butchers and the role they played in providing food for their communities. The use of handwritten receipts was common practice during this time, long before the advent of electronic record-keeping. Each receipt is a testament to the care and attention to detail that went into every transaction. The survival of these receipts allows us to connect with the past in a tangible way, providing a window into the lives of those who came before us.
