For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I feel the answer could be "leather" as it can be "impressed" but not quite sure why. It might have had more relevance in 1954!
Other interesting clues are "one of those uplifting things at fun fairs" (4,4) which I believe to be "flip-flap", which rather dates the crossword, and "it has proved rather a come-down this summer" (4) which I believe to be "rain", suggesting a rather wet July and August in 1954!
