Your contributions are important and welcomed. Each image sent in helps to make the past a little bit clearer.

We are pleased to give photo credits but some contributors prefer to remain anonymous. We will assume the latter unless you inform us otherwise.

If any images you send in are personal and you wish them to be marked to deter copying then please let us know and we will put a 'Protected' marker on them. This will not prevent copying but will make the image unviable accept for any personal use.

Where possible, please let us have any dates, makers names or model numbers or any other detail which will help to explain your images.

We take this opportunity of saying thanks to all those contributors who have given so generously in the past.
