I found an advert for Walrus Records & Tapes in the 18th June 1980 edition of the Hull Daily Mail:

I can thank Walrus records for getting me into music. As a young lad in the 70’s, I would go to the stall in Bransholme Market to spend my pocket money. I was tempted by the colourful Sex Pistols picture sleeves but my mum wouldn’t let me buy them as I was only 7. Bought my first single from there which was Paranoid by Black Sabbath.
Manned by a guy called Craig who now lives in Cottingham I believe. Unfortunately, he couldn’t compete with the supermarkets and closed the stall down. I eventually got the Sex Pistols singles from Discogs. Great memories and I hope Craig is still doing well.
