Searle's Trading Post
In true traditional trading post fashion, Searle’s is also an establishment where the trading of goods takes place. Trading posts were also places for people to meet and exchange the news of the world or simply the news from their home country (many of the world’s trading posts were located in places which were popular destinations for emigration) in a time when not even newspapers existed.
Trading posts in general were of great importance to the history of currency. Though barter has been used for millennia and continues to be used, almost from the start of trading post history, the need occurred to have something as a payment medium. Soon trade tokens and eventually coins were produced from precious metals like gold, silver and copper for the use of buying and selling goods instead of simply exchanging them.
Fortunately modern economics has replaced the need to barter, but Searle’s maintains the tradition of providing all kinds of memorabilia for sale. From old kitchen utensils, enamel ware, old tins (tea, coffee etc), dolls and porcelain, old carpentry and garden tools, linen and vintage clothing, Africana books to pictures and furniture – we stock it all.
So if you’re looking for a gift for someone who has it all, or simply want a nostalgic trip down memory lane, come and see our extensive range!
