Although I can remember visiting Caird's in Reform Street in the 60's, I don't recall being in this ladies department above. There's a chance I may have been dragged around it as a nipper with my mum I suppose but there wouldn't have been anything there that would have interested me!I do have memories of the boys/gents department, although I must admit it wasn't very inspirational - it was more sensible kind of clothing than trendy and also they supplied school outfits. I do remember getting what was called a car coat from Cairds, complete with furry collar.
The picture was taken in November 1960.

I REMEMBER GOING INTO CAIRDS WHEN I WAS YOUNG.IT WAS A VERY STUFFY OLD PLACE, BUT THE HIGHLIGHT FOR ME WAS THE TOY SECTION , WHERE I USED TOBUY PLASTIC ANIMALS TO ADD TO MY COLLECTION.
