May 14, 1977 PHSC fair at the War Amps building on Wellesley
Toronto. The first PHSC fair I attended was the 3rd annual fair held May 14, 1977 at the War Amps building, 85 Wellesley St West in Toronto. As fairs were held on weekends, I was unable to attend the two earlier ones.
While I can’t recall today exactly what I picked up back then, I did take a few snaps of the fascinating show using tri-x in a Leica.
This year’s fair will be at the Trident Hall on Evans Ave at Islington in the west end on May 25th. Lots of free parking, tasty refreshments, inexpensive admission, and loads of tables full of photographica – cameras, lenses, accessories, books, etc., etc. This will be our 51st consecutive year!
NB. The title here is a riff on the rolling crawl introducing the first Star Wars movie in …. 1977.
