Book and Record Exchange

Comments

Name: Steve Chapman
Comment: My other favourite record shop in Hull in the 1970s was the Book and Record Exchange on Princes Avenue. Great shop because you could literally exchange things you did not like. I also loved the first Virgin store in Hull with its beanbags and their willingness to put anything you recommended on their turntable.

I found this advert in the 'Hull Daily Mail' dated 20th November 1969: “Secondhand Books and Records, Posters, Hangers, Good selection of Christmas Cards. All at the BOOK & RECORD EXCHANGE, 97 Princes Avenue, Hull. Telephone: 43988. ALSO AT 43 Carr Lane, Hull. Telephone: 25616."
... and this classified advert in the 25th April 1974 edition: “We are still looking for an ASSISTANT for the BOOK AND RECORD EXCHANGE. The successful applicant will be young, bright, energetic, responsible and well read, but not over-qualified. Apply in writing only to: THE MANAGER, BOOK AND RECORD EXCHANGE, 97 PRINCES AVENUE, HULL.”
