What about bananas, they used to be delivered to Liverpool from Sierra Leone in the 50's.Mind you, you would need an awful lot of bananas to fill 20,000 tons !!

I have tried google but no luck. can anyone suggest where I might look.
4) Nylon stockings.

Can't find it on the internet, but the "Chronicle of the 20th Century" says that "on 4th April 1950, the 20,000 ton Franconia docked at Liverpool and was found to have smuggled �80,000 of nylon stockings".
