Any chance anyone with a scanner who gets this publication can post the images?

Thanks!

I bought a copy yesterday but like a twat I left it outside on me patio table and guess what....it rained, so now I have a wet one.

The photo on page 10 top left is a birds eye view of Long Eaton with Tamworth road winding into the market place. The canal can be seen quite clearly running out towards Stapleford and Sandiacre.

well that's what I recon I see.

I am trying to get them on but it is very awkward with the photos being spread over four separate 'scans'

Any way pages 2/3

I'm having a problem accessing 'Photo Bucket ' at the moment so can't post any more pics. I'll try again in a bit.

I can see where I lived! Comment made by bygones staff re New Basford made me laugh, I can tell em virtually every facory,road and things of interest, I reckon 1963 as "daft School" still there (no insult intended, just known by that name to everyone) and roof of our garage (ex stable) which went up in flames Nov 5th that year!
