Although the days of the postcard fair have a distinctly numbered look about them, I expect a few others will show up.

Maybe people will be saving themselves for the excellent Norfolk Postcard Club Fair in Norwich the following week (and my next outing)

Oh dear: more pessimism, and I thought I was a gloomy type! Or it it realism? Individual views apart, is this the general view in the trade? I suppose the reasons are eBay, limited new stock, expensive venues and rising card prices. And I know of a couple of dealers who no longer relish driving long distances on crowded roads.

(After the event)
This was a good fair for me. The number of dealers was down a bit because it clashed with Haywards Heath. Next year this will not happen as the respective organisers are talking to each other. I will be there and there should be a full compliment of dealers on December 8th.

... and I'm pleased I was able to help make it good (albeit not a huge amount) for you, Tony.

At least next time I might remember your name correctly !!
