History

The Darty brothers started to sell stock and to attract in the customers, they left the goods on the pavement. In a few days, stock was liquidated. In 1967 the Darty brothers transferred to a larger warehouse. 1957 (MCMLVII) was a common year starting on Tuesday of the Gregorian calendar. ...
