Personal Letter from Julian Rignall - Plus More

Going through my room still - massive clear out, sorting out my hundreds and bloody hundreds of computer magazines and thousands of games. Not to mention comics, annuals - too much stuff - don't want to be a hoarder and be buried under the stuff.

I probably have chucked out loads - had literally hundreds of posters too - original promotional ones you found in computer shops, not the freebies in magazines, but chucked em, lost em and sold em over the years.

Sure I had more promotional items too, can only really find the Ocean yearly advert annuals, Thing Bounces Back and a Gremlin note-pad.

However you may be interested to see some great retro stuff

1. Letter from Julian Rignall after I won the C&VG competition to Disney World in Florida. Mates at school would not believe me that I won and was going to holiday with Mr Rignall himself! So he wrote a decent letter to confirm it. Should still have some Xmas cards he sent me after too (remember sent me a few C64 games like Op Wolf but was the same year I got my Amiga - with Op Wolf on there!) plus photos, etc. maybe even some camcorder footage
