Convention archive

Here you will find how our Annual General Meeting grew to become a two day card fair.

We freely admit these are but bare bones, but they are at a point where we would really appreciate your help to start adding in material and memories. So if you know, or read any information that is not here, whether that is in vintage magazines, online, or anywhere else, please let us know – and if you have any archive material that you would be willing to scan for us.
