Context

Administrative/Biographical history:

The London Rubber Company Limited annual report on 1967, printed in The Times newspaper of 29 August 1967, reports that: "we have converted a number of our principal off-licences to a supermarket style of operation trading as Wine Ways (Supermarkets) Ltd., with concentration on a range of nationally advertised wines, spirits and beers offered at reduced prices". Presumably this subsidiary was later sold to the Victoria Wine Company.
