Hi All - bit of advice if possible please.
Reading this thread reminded me I have an oiginal festival poster for the 8th National Jazz and Blues festival at Sunbury 9-11th Aug 1968 featuring, amongst others, Fairport (twice), Jethro Tull, The Nice, Jeff Beck and Traffic.
Do you think it might be worth 'owt?
Depending on condition, anything from £50-£250 I'd say, possibly more if its in truly exceptional condition. If you put it on hte Cropredy car boot sale I'll give ay a tenner for it thats more realistic but still about £9.50 too much for a fairport relic with nothing to validate it You owd cynic you!  |

We recently (OK, a couple of years ago, but that is recently in my mind) had someone bring in a small poster (flyer really) for a little festival in Crowland in 1967 (if I remember rightly). It was torn up the middle crease to about halfway & had no artwork, just text. Lots of interesting bands, but included Pink Floyd, from before they were well known, so it fetched £1,200 on eBay. |

On that basis virtually everything in every antique shop in the land is worth nowt....surely one uses one's own skill, expertise and 'sixth sense' to validate anything... that's worth a lot more than any meaningless 'certificate of authenticity' or somesuch.... |

Incidentally, if you want to maximise bids on a particular item, don't finish it just after Midnight on a Sunday night (unless you're determined to sell it to the US)....

Exactly Davidmjs. Not sure I could sit through an episode of Antiques Roadshow following Jim's rules: "Have you got a letter to go with it?" "No." "Well it's worth 50p then." Next item: "Have you got...." I'll scan it and PM you if you fancy having a look at it Davidmjs? |

If this sort of thing comes up again, I stumbled upon an interesting resource today. What wouldn't you have given to have been at The Fillmore East in June 1970?  http://home.myfairpoint.net/srabbot/rt/rtbase.htm#1968 And to have seen RT and Sandy Denny performing Chirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep the year after...  |

That looks like the work of a "Timothy Spall in Shooting the Past" type, and I mean that with affection and respect - what an amazing record.

I'm particularly taken with the 1981 appearance on the " Jane Thakery" show on BBC2. This was before the sex change, presumably? |
