Slides

Over the years I have put aside colour slide material whenever original images came my way from friends or colleagues wishing to dispose of some or all of their collections.

I have begun to prepare some of these slides for sale encouraged by an excellent copying source. In spite of some of the images being over 40 years old, I have endeavoured to present copy slides of the best possible quality but they are, of course, totally dependant upon the condition of the original image.

My third catalogue is now available and features a considerable number of first generation diesel and industrial images. Appearing for the first time are a small number of really choice early Irish diesels. The 60s and early 70s were periods when many enthusiasts showed no interest at all in the changing times. Nearly forty years later, opinions have mellowed and there is a considerable demand for scenes of that time. I have been able to partially reflect that demand thanks to one enthusiast who had the foresight to buck the trends of the time.

I will continue to add to the catalogue and issue new editions on a regular basis. I have a considerable archive of overseas steam which will probably be issued as a separate catalogue in due course.

A selection of the stock appears regularly on my stand at events but you can obtain a catalogue by sending £2.00 to me at 67 Tuffley Avenue, Gloucester GL1 5LY.
