Hide AdThe Leeds Back in the Day calendar is an annual edition featuring photographs from the city’s past, many of which have never been published before.
Some highlights in this year’s calendar include previously unseen photographs of City Square, steam trains on lines across Leeds, and five giants of the High Street that shoppers will fondly remember.
Proceeds from the sale of this year’s calendar will go to local charity Leeds Feline Friends.
“This is without doubt the biggest and best Leeds Back in the Day calendar so far - if you have enjoyed our previous calendars you will love this one,” said founder Jason.
