  • Wheeler-Edwards was a jeweller based in Manchester, known for high-quality jewellery and silverware, likely serving an affluent clientele in the mid-20th century.

    Manchester’s Princess Street has long been an important commercial hub in the city, and Wheeler-Edwards would have catered to those looking for fine jewelry for special occasions such as engagements, weddings, and anniversaries.

    Given the telephone number format (with a CIT exchange), the box likely dates to the 1950s or 1960s.
