You're very welcome, glad you enjoyed them. Now, why do they appear upside down when they're correct to start with and correct when you click on each image? Hmmmmm........ :?

Sometimes being a vampire bat is a good thing.

Nice upside-down photos! (I have the same problem whenever I post photos here). The fair seems mostly directed to radios and associated electronics, but there were some interesting gramophones. I liked in particular the Monarch with the large silver horn, very imposing! Also interesting to see reel-to-reel recorders for sale - they were a mandatory component in every serious audiophile system in the sixties and seventies, and seem to have vanished even from the nostalgia zone nowadays.

Yes, it is a fayre run by the British Vintage Wireless Society (BVWS) so there is a radio and electronics bias, definitely. I'm not sure what the silver horn you're referring to is? If its the Cockleshell Monarch, it's actually a repro brass horn highly polished up.
