Established in 1894 by Henry Spiller, Spillers is said to be the oldest trading record shop in the world.
This T-shirt from Spillers is a popular piece of merchandise for music lovers. The T-shirts were originally worn by the staff but customers liked them so much that they started to sell them.
Ashli Todd is the manager of Spillers record shop and describes what it's like to work there: “I was born into Spillers. My parents have been its custodians since the 1970s and I’ve worked there for over ten years. It's the oldest record shop in the world! It’s diverse and challenging but immensely rewarding. The most pleasurable aspect is meeting individuals who feel as passionately about music as I do. Spillers evokes a lot of warmth from people, whether they’re from Cardiff or beyond and I am very proud to be a part of its legacy.”
