BAM: Archive Images

Well it's a while since I have drawn breath and blogged about BAM ((I
am going to try to stop calling it BAM, as strictly speaking the film
is not solely about Bermondsey Antiques Market, but about Caledonian
Market also, though what I am going to refer to it as I am not
sure...). Anyhoo... Lots of interesting progress to report. I have
now, thanks to the wonderful support of my local History Library, been
able to acquire some fantastic archive images of the market from 1945
onwards, some of which I have posted up on my website: www.signature-films.com

I have also begun a dialogue with the Museum of London, hopefully to
gain permissions to use some of their great collection of photographs
and paintings. If I can it will mean the history of the original
Caledonian Market from 1900 to 1940 can also be richly represented.
Fingers crossed.

Best
