Another nice donation - Archivist - 24-10-2021
I received a delightful donation to the Archive this week from Nigel Offer of the Solent Club. This donation is of a large collection of photos from various eras, all 7 related and just the sort of thing I have been looking for to bolster the collection of period photos held by the Archive. Thank you Nigel..
The Archive holds quite a number of photos which all need going through, identifying and cataloguing. Not all will make it to the web site, I will be honest, as a result of the overhead of the work, but those of genuine interest will be displayed... As I get closer to doing that work (a pilot project is underway), I will reach out for volunteers to help with the task..

Hugh, if you have any "specials" that would benefit from very high-resolution scanning and cleaning up, I'm very happy to help

Hi,
I have just been having an explore and found the following.
parts list 353k
repair charges 540f
price list 478a
price list478c
front cover and first page 821d ( Sorry father could not get to the bonfire in time )
price list 1166c
Big Seven body parts no cover 1745 ( I see this one already in the archive )
My father worked as a mechanic in the early 1970s and he rescued these from going on a fire during his fag break.
I dread to think what else was lost to the flames that day.
These all need to be rehomed in the public domain.
I had forgotton all about them untill this thread made me think.
