You may feel that I have been talking to much lately about the Prints by Wallace Trickett we have for sale through the site . Without these prints which recall the municipal Transport operators of our Lancashire Towns and the funds they generate I would have to shut the site down ( Again my sincere thanks to Wallace ).
I decided the other day as the print Wallace has done of a scene in Accrington is such a wonderful memory of the towns bus fleet , and plans are a foot to close the bus station featured and it is also the Centenary of the founding of ACCRINGTON CORPORATION TRANSPORT DEPARTMENT and that I also live in the area , to offer one as a gift from LRU to the local council , an offer which has generously been accepted by the leader of Hyndburn (Accrington & District ) Council Mr Peter Britcliffe (Pictured ) and as such I have been asked to present one and open the cabinet meeting on 17th September and also give a short talk about this site .
The Accrington prints have caused a lot of interest so much so they are now for sale through Accrington Library after they purchased some from me, and are now the main outlet in the ACCRINGTON AREA for this particular print , other towns libraries, Museums and also a fund raising intuitive in ULVERSTON may soon follow.
So,after much leg work, many e-mails and not to mention hours spent driving from town to town this is now helping to secure the sites future and allowing me to invest further in NEW STOCK for the shop and equipment for the site and other features and competitions in the run up to Christmas for the benefit of us all .
I shall be offering other towns a gift of there towns print thus Re-Uniting there town with memories of days gone bye and there MUNICIPAL FLEET .
Why not consider purchasing a print from the growing collection they make an Birthday or Xmas present for a loved one or relative to remember days gone bye and maybe spark a memory --Go to LANCASHIRE PRINTS and order NOW . Payments are secure- via PAYPAL and your print will be with you in days .
The Leader would like to invite you
to present the print and say a few words about it and your work (approx
5 mins), at the beginning of the September Cabinet meeting. The
meeting will be on 17th Sept at 1pm at Scaitcliffe House.
Would you let me know as soon as possible if you will attend.
Kind Regards
