Although o/t, I was typing this in for '405 Alive' last night and thought it would be of interest to the forum. Before anyone asks, what is typed below is all I know, so please ask the Museum for further details. These seem to be bargain prices.
begins
"News has just reached me that the Twickenham Museum is now offering by post three highly recommended items of interest to our readers. These are an illustrated book (over 100 picture/diagrams), a one hour PAL VHS colour video-tape (covering 1880 to 1990) and a CD Rom (300 pictures, including those in the book) which trace the history of Teddington Studios. These items were meticulously compiled by ex-training manager, John Tasker from large archive materials. The studios began as Glasshouse film studios, leading up to the years which meant ABC and Thames Television, which are covered in detail. Many interesting facts are uncovered. Did you know that in 1944 the studios were almost destroyed by an enemy bomb?
The proceeds from the sale of these items go to the Museum and the cost of each item is only £5 per Book, Tape or CD (plus £1 each for postage).
Obtainable from:
Twickenham Museum
25 The Embankment, Twickenham
and also from
John Tasker
9, Breamwater Gardens
Ham, Richmond, Surrey TW10 7SF"
