Prices start from £20 + P&P. It is advertised in this weeks Speedway Star. Alternatively e-mail coveadv@gmail.com if you are interested in seeing a sample of the print.  Is this for real ?? A 1st time poster putting something up for sale ?? Just seams suspicious to me. Just seen advert it appears to be an A4 framed print of around 10/12 photos of various comets.

Neila Posted April 6, 2020 Report Share Posted April 6, 2020 Looks like someone out to try and cash in on the 50th year of comets, would leave well alone if they can't even get the basics correct 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marksman Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 Going back to that print that was advertised, I decided to make my own memories on photoshop of the 1999 season onwards. It's desktop wallpaper size (2560x1440) so feel free to use , the high resolution version can be downloaded here -Â https://imgur.com/a/oYLZw2n 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
