A FAMILIAR face dropped in on uniform firm Simon Jersey's stand during an exhibition in Chicago.
Former Prime Minister John Major visited the Altham firm's stand at the National Restaurant Association show.
And Mr Major was particularly interested in a shirt designed by Simon Jersey staff featuring the Stars and Stripes of the American flag.
"It is rather like taking coals to Newcastle," commented Mr Major, who was a guest speaker at the show.
