The 65-year-old light bulb that outlived Woolworths: "It defied the Luftwaffe during the Blitz - not to mention Britain’s own air-raid wardens when it was left on during the blackout.
Now this light bulb is about to outlive Woolworths, the shop where it was bought more than 65 years ago for one old penny.
The 40-watt wonder, which still works, now has pride of place in a china cabinet at the home of Valerie Beaney, 68, whose late mother Rose Allen bought it in 1943."
