Last of the News of the World
Image: © Stephen Craven Taken: 9 Jul 2011
The Toybox Newsagent on Bramshot Avenue had for a long time advertised, like many others, the popular newspapers including the News of the World. The latter title was due to publish its last ever edition on 10 July 2011 (the day after this photo was taken) after being hit by a scandal about the illegal practice of phone-tapping.
