I am running a 50th anniverary of a local club, and would be interested in prices when they first started. Any websites near other prices of that year woiuld be graet.
Answer:
One and tuppence. five new pence.
I have an matured memory but it doesn't get reasonably *that* old.
Sorry- no support today
Good Luck. But a hoola hoop be .50 cents!
My grandad say it was in the order of 5 and a half out-of-date pennies .
Can.t really remember 1958 but I don't chew over prices altered all that muck from 1951 when I know we used to acquire a pint of bitter for 2shillings and twopence(2/2d) In todays money this would be 11p. Hope this might help. Have a accurate night.
average price for a pint in 1958 be 3/6d (three shillings and sixpence) =17.5 new pence
about 1shilling and a penny, mild be 11pennies, and wages for a wagon driver be about lb12 for for 60hours
i think it be about 2 /2 which is 11 surrounded by this modern stuff . why dont you ask camra they are old ample to know . or better still log in to spbw they are really prehistoric .
Looking at the previous answers, some are purely guessing. 45 years ago, when I first used pubs a pint of best was 2s 1d, going on for 10p in modern money. Cheaper outside London & cheaper still surrounded by 1958, 4 years before.
Not a definitive answer to your question,but I started drinking surrounded by 60 and I could get a pint of Wilsons mild for 1s 2d. That's up north west
February 1958 is remembered for the death of seven ‘Busby Babes’ contained by the Manchester United Munich airline disaster. The Empire & Commonwealth Games were held within Cardiff; the first Hovercraft made its maiden flight; Lycra was invented; the first parking meters appeared on London streets…and beer be about 1s 6d (7 1/2 p) a pint.
