Somehow these pictures got left in a temp folder for two years, for which I have to apologise to Simon Vaughan of the Alexandra Palace Television Society who sent them to me in July 2011.
The Emitron belonged to the late Norman Taylor and was given, along with other memorabilia, to the APTS by his wife.
Simon also sent this 78 record made at Christmas 1959 by Crew 9 , and kept by Norman till his death. I’ve put in an inverted picture of the faces so you don’t have to hang upside down over your computer….
Click for large.
Simon played the record, and the result is here –

I’ve fiddled around with my free educational copy of Adobe Audition CS6 (no clouds for me!) and come up with this slightly fixed version. If a proper sound person fancies having a go at making a better version, I’ll be very happy to replace mine. The player has a download button on the right.
