Here’s an intriguing photo from bygone Sunderland and we want your help with it.
The Echo archive image shows Madame Perine Cabioch from Brittany, France, in the Ford Estate area of town.
It was taken in 1951 and shows Madame Cabioch stringing onions in a Lambton Street warehouse.
Tell us if you remember onion sellers in the area at the time and what else you remember of the 1950s era.
