This crossword book looks great!
It´s of no importance but I think the picture is laterally reversed. You can see that from Gary´s face. On the video cover of Five fall into adventure (Pickwick edition) it´s „correct“.

It's the TV Times with Tommy Cooper on the front.

Thanks for this hint. I thought this article was from a Look-In magazine. Anyway, it can be seen on the German fanpage but it´s too small there to read the text. Maybe someone can copy and post the quotes, please?

By the way: Since a couple of days you can find the article of Look-In No. 30/1978 on the German fansite (written off in English and with the original pictures). And you can also find another rarity there: Some pictures of a View-Master containing scenes of "go off to camp" that can´t be seen in the TV episode.

Thanks George, I was delighted to see some of your collection.

The original artwork is stunning! I love the badges too!
How long have you been collecting the memorabilia for?

Thanks you Jen Jen, I think around 6 years... Always been a collector of something...

It must be exciting when you add something new to your collection George. I imagine it would be hard coming across things from '78. Imagine if there was no ebay!!!
Is there something in your collection that you would say is the most exciting thing you've come across?

Erm, probably the artwork, together with a number of black and white publicity shots - they are very special to me, and I'll upload some pics of them this week...

I've also some paperbacks signed by the cast with I'm fond of.

Look forward to seeing the publicity shots!

Here are the publicity shots. On the reverse of many is taped a typed piece from the TV company with a little info about the cast or shot etc.

There are a few I've not put up, if they're similar to others.

Firstly, individual shots

Then group shots

Then some in action - I really like the one with Jo in. (and it's the only one I forgot to resize - sorry!

Oh, the individual shots are lovely, especially the ones of Gary Russell and Michele Gallagher. And the one with Julie (Jo) in it (and Eryngium!) is great.

Thanks for posting the pictures, George.

Amazing, Zoe...

Is there anything you don't have..?

Does anyone know if the boat was called Eryngium for a reason, or was it just that a boat of that name was available so they didn't bother changing it?

Zoe WOW!
