• Items placed under this heading also incorporate Taylor & Barrett (T&B) which were manufactured from 1920 to 1941. Manufacturing had to cease from 1941 due to World War 2. After the war the partnership was not renewed.
• Mr Barrett and sons started up again as "Barrett & Sons" which traded from 1945 to 1983.
• Mr Taylor, his son and son in law started up again as "F.G. Taylor & Sons" which traded from 1945 to 1980.
•  Any "FGT & Sons" items have been placed on the Miscellaneous Page.
• From the 1960s onwards metal components were increasingly replaced by plastic.
• In 1970 Barretts moved into premises that housed the Barton company at that particular time. From then on Barretts made exclusively for Bartons. Therefore I will place many of the Barrett plastic 1970s items under the Barton heading. At the same time, all of their moulds were converted so from then on no metal items were made, only plastic.

A solid metal fridge in a good played with condition, with opening door. The interior shelves are long gone and there is a fair bit of paint loss however this is a lovely item for the vintage house. Has no T&B markings therefore thought to be post war (were manufactured until 1958) but this item was exactly the same as the pre-war version.

1950s/60s Barrett & Son Vacuum Cleaner @ £18.00

This 1950/60s Barrett cream painted metal hoover with speckled material bag is in a good played with condition, with a little paint loss.

NB. Although this was manufactured and sold for use with 1/16th dolls houses, please note that this is actually on the large side and would even suit the 1/12th dolls house. This item  measures  4" long from tip of handle to front of hoover. I personally am not bothered by discrepancies in scale with the antique and vintage items, however please take note of measurements before ordering.
