Matt in Scotland has found a catalog put out by Alec Gray back in 1956.
He has scanned a few pages to the SRGC Forum http://www.srgc.net/forum/index.php?topic=13893.0
He can send out a 3MB file of the entire catalog to anyone who asks. If you’d like a copy you can register on the SRGC Forum to be able to contact him or drop me a line and I can forward it to you. It makes fascinating reading to see what was on offer half a century ago. Not to mention the fact that selling bulbs dug in the wild was not frowned upon back then,
cheers
