Photographs and Postcards

The Association also has a large digitised photographic collection and a substantial archive of originals. We use them at exhibitions, as illustrations for talks and publications and very many of them have been used throughout this web site. They are universally popular. At the monthly meeting in February 2022, when our speaker’s car had broken down, and he couldn’t get to us, we simply turned to the projector and did an ‘old photos’ slide show which went down a treat.  That was fortunate as our relatively new MP had come to the meeting and she seemed absolutely delighted with what she was seeing. Along with the old maps, they are also a great ‘fall-back’ when we have a ‘home-spun’ evening without a visiting speaker.
