David, I know Super 8mm is not your bag so to speak, but it is for many many collectors.
I hope, with this in mind, the format can and will be supported just as well as the other formats at this years convention.
I know of a fellow collector who has been going to the Blackpool outing in the last few years but felt even DVD sales took precedence sadly over the "bootlace" guage.
I do hope Super 8mm films and equipment is as well supported as the other formats in the next, and future events.
This is not aimed as a criticism of past times David... just a plea to you to aim to raise the profile of the event to many of us Super 8mm quality film and quality equipment collectors.
I do hope the tables contain plenty of Super 8mm quality items in the future.

there are plenty tables selling super 8 films and projectors. I myself had over 200 super 8 films on my stall as well as 3 elmo super 8 projectors last year .and there was loads on the bring and buy as well. I would say going of the bookings there will be as many super 8 as 16mm

anyone who has booked a table at blackpool and only paid a deposit this has now been lost as balance should have been paid by 1st july .I have had lots of new enquiries this year and dealers who have not paid will be disappointed ,due to new dealers wanting to attend and their is only so much space
