Rooster J. Cogburn Posted January 31, 2014 Report Posted January 31, 2014 In light of the information on the foundation birds in Tom Corrie Jnr's great Davie Donaldson loft profile,I thought this would be a nice thing to post and will hopefully be of interest to some members. I have to thank Mossgiel for sending it to me
paddymac Posted January 31, 2014 Report Posted January 31, 2014 Interesting reading Rooster, £600 in 1939 must have been a fortune, I wonder what it would be in todays terms
dwh Posted January 31, 2014 Report Posted January 31, 2014 Interesting reading Rooster, £600 in 1939 must have been a fortune, I wonder what it would be in todays terms A simple Purchasing Power Calculator would say the relative value is £31,500.00. This answer is obtained by multiplying £600.00 by the percentage increase in the RPI from 1939 to 2012.
paddymac Posted January 31, 2014 Report Posted January 31, 2014 Not bad income for a season back in those days and even now to the ordinary fanciers in the sport
