3rd JUNE BVW&TV Museum Garden Party
No sooner have we recovered (just about!) from the NVCF and the next event is upon us, the the annual BVWS GARDEN PARTY at the BRITISH VINTAGE WIRELESS and TELEVISION MUSEUM in West Dulwich, South London, see: http://www.bvws.org.uk/events/diary.php on SATURDAY 3rd JUNE.
Tickets £19 on the door (or £15 in advance by using the form in The BVWS Bulletin) including a hearty buffet lunch and a pud, excellent value! Musical entertainment. Come along and enjoy a nostalgic day out in the company of like-minded enthusiasts and listen to sounds of the thirties emanating from vintage wireless receivers. Watch glorious black and white TV programmes on pre war equipment! During the day, there will be quizzes, raffles and the ever popular lucky dip! An the usual radio jumble stalls where you can always find a bargain or two! Free on street parking. Why not make a weekend of it and visit the VINTAGE TECHNOLOGY FAIR at the CINEMA MUSEUM just a few miles up the road in Kennington on the SUNDAY 4th, open to all 10am to 4pm, £5 entry: Everyone's welcome! http://www.cinemamuseum.org.uk/2017/...ogy-fair-2017/ Many stalls selling vintage equipment and spares, including many of the BVWS regulars and of course the BVWS stall itself with a packed van load of radio/test gear/audio/etc. from the stores, capacitors, Deoxit, etc. The Cinema Museum itself will be selling surplus valve and vintage sound projection equipment. Lots of old cinema equipment and ephemera on display in this wonderfully preserved Victorian Lambeth Workhouse, for a time the home of a young Charlie Chaplin! Hot and cold snacks, no congestion charge on Sunday! See you there!

Re: 3rd JUNE BVW&TV Museum Garden Party
Just a reminder this is next Saturday, so there's still time to send off the form from the last Bulletin and take advantage of the special price tickets!
See you there!
