Fairground artwork
The collection. Past and present.
![]() Probably from a rifle range or similar side stall. Thought to be 1930s, this is in it's original superb paintwork. It's big - about 11' long. Provenance unknown. |

![]() This is the central section of the Sport sign. Stunning! |
![]() Janey O'Connor usually paints wagons. Her scrollwork is legendary! This tile is specially for us (Goddard's Amusements). |
![]() Love this gag board, whih seems to be based on a seaside postcard. Loved this so much that it became our logo! |
![]() Twin to the "laugh a minute" gag board. These were often hung from the swifts (rafters) of sidestalls and rides. |
![]() This shows some of the decorative work on my old living van. No longer in the collection, sadly. |
Other peoples' stuff...

![]() This is similar to Fowle's work but I have a feeling it came from Carters' Steam Fair. |
![]() No idea where I took this pic! |
