But my USC colleague Chris Gould -the chief organisational engine behind the fair- has prepared hundreds of photographs again, and you can go and have a look here, and see some of the project descriptions also.

[...] I love to go and look at all the displays of food (pictures all down the right of this post so far), some good plain old-fashioned theme-park Englishness (both on the part of the store and staff on the one hand, and the customers on the other), and also some of the other displays too. Recall the pictures of the hats from my previous post. Dear Reader (and I’m not just talking to men here), if you don’t go and wander in the women’s “soft accessories” section, where on earth would you ever see such wonderful composition?

I quite literally grew up with much of that rocket collection in my house. My father researched, designed, engineered and managed the building of several of those payload delivery systems. He also helped evaluate and analyze the intelligent reports on some of the other systems from the Soviet era that are displayed their as well in your photo. Thanks for the precious memories just from that one image. Now if only i hadn’t been such a destructive little twit.
