The location will again be the Musical Museum's state of the art purpose built premises at 399 High Street, Brentford, TW8 0DU in west London.The nearest stations are Kew Bridge then a 5 minute walk or Gunnersbury (District Line and London Overground)and a short bus ride to the door.The doors open for the phonofair at 10:00 with "Early Bird" entry of £7.50 and £3.00 entry after 11:00. Traders from all over Britain will be there, buying and selling phonographs, gramophones, cylinders and records.
If you have items to sell, only 3 tables are currently still available at a cost of £25.00 each, please contact me on twoodwolley@clpgs.org.uk for further details.
Demonstrations of phonographs and gramophones will take place throughout the day and it is hoped that the Museum's cinema organ will also be in action this year.

If the previous two joint open days are anything to go by, this has the makings of being another excellent day out.
Hope to see many of you there.
