Festival Of Britain Guide Book 1951
Official guide book for the 1951 Festival of Britain that was on the South Bank in London. Old enough to remember the Fun Fair in Battersea Park with Rowland Emmett's "Far Tottering & Oyster Creek Railway" and the 3D film theatre. I was only 4 at the time so memory is slightly hazy!
