British Fireworks from not so long ago-1970s-1980s - but many now a distant memory - and a few interesting items from Japan:and BANGERS!!!

These photos were of dummies sent in again by Barry Shepard of Nottingham, UK. They are all large scans so as the detail and design may be seen. Hope you enjoy them and like me spit with rage that you never kept any dead or fired items from this era after your November 5ths!!Barry did, I did not! Grrrrrrrr!!Did you?

Remember when you could buy quire small fireworks individually and they came boxed in "dozens" etc in plain grey or yellow cardboard wholesale boxes? Some of those boxes and the (dummy) contents are seen in these following pages.
