Many thanks to Pyro.1 (Paul) who has just donated the following interesting items from the 70s & 80s to the society.

Our display boards attract a huge amount of attention at public events, but our second one has looked a little thin for a while. I will now remake it with these new items. As this will take me a few weeks, here is a preview. I've also attached pictures of a tiny rocket from the same sort of period that I have just unearthed.

Resist the temptation to let it off! (if you can) I'm sure it would look ace in our little display...

I've finally got round to making our second display board. This has the items from the old small board and the donations from Paul
