Summary

Wilfred Caxton (Wilfred Pickles) is a jobbing printer who specialises in printing greetings cards with verses written by his assistant Miss Brearley (Evelyn Lund).

Other characters include Wilfred's wife Mabel (Mabel Pickles), daughter Sally (Mary Webster), young Willie (Peter Hodgson) and Charlie Haskell (Richard Curnock).

For some strange reason, the names of the husband and wife changed to 'David Caxton' and 'Mary Caxton' part way through the series.
