Not only torn up newspaper on a string, but some people had outside toilets
as well. The one in the first house we bought in 1965 would have been an
outside toilet if the previous owners hadn't built an enclosed lean-to which
meant it was "indoors". The house had no bath.
Not only did public toilets have the perforated stuff on a roll, but local
government buildings such as schools had that too with the name of the local
authority printed on each sheet.
My primary school (7 - 11 years) was next to a paper factory that produced
soft toilet rolls. Scot something I think it was. We went on a tour of the
factory to see how it was made. Even then I couldn't see the point of water
resistant toilet tissue, which was one of their products!!
