A few vendors (including myself) will be offering mechanical musical
instruments, musical box discs, pianola rolls, books, recordings,
et cetera, amongst the two hundred plus stalls selling phonographs,
gramophones, radios and telephones at the next Retrotech Fair
(previously called The National Vintage Communications Fair) on Sunday,
26th September 2021, at The Warwickshire Exhibition Centre, The Fosse,
Fosse Way, Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, CV31 1XN England. The last
event was in Spring 2019.
It is a great day out and over 1,400 people attended last time. They
have Covid-safe measures in place and request all those attending to
wear a face-covering to protect those who are vulnerable, especially
now that cases are rising again in the U.K. Full details are on the
fair's web site, https://www.retrotechuk.com/
If you want me to bring something in particular for you please let me
know _before_ 5 p.m. on Friday 24th September. This is the nearest we
get in the UK to the show at Union, Illinois, in June in USA; it may
not be as large but it often has some nice bargains and surprises!
