While investigating the heritage world of Kays on the internet we’ve found out a couple of new facts about the British mail order catalogue. Firstly, iconic model Jean Shrimpton posed for the pages of Kays in the early 1960s. And the second interesting Kays-fact is in the early days of the business (They’ve been trading for a 100 years) they sold live chickens.
Some of the pages of past catalogues were archived on The World of Kays website by the Research Collections of the University of Worcester in 2009.
Out of their archives we’ve picked out some of favourites from 1967 to 1973. Appearing in the ads are Queen of the Mods Cathy McGowan and entertainer Anita Harris.
