1995 was a year which your city welcomed Swedish furniture retail giant Ikea with thousands queuing to catch a first look of what was on offer. The city's footballing family also said Hallå (swedish for Hello) to the 'baby-faced assassin' - striker Tomas Brolin who joined Leeds United from Palma at the back end of the year. Enjoy these photo memories, a mix from the YEP archive, the David Atkinson Archive and Leodis, charting 12 months in the life of your city and its residents.
