Yep, Ive got a few. The Paramount records set of 6 lp's each has a different hologram but the best one I have is Dope lemon (Australian band I think) which is absolutely amazing.

Foveaux, Mozart was probably out on tour rubbing shoulders with the stars around Europe with his revered backup player, his sister.

Creative Audio adverts of the 90’s. Creative Audio are a hifi retailer in Dogpole, Shrewsbury England, and used to run large ads in major hifi mags that were clever and humorous. Anyone remember them? Have any copy? For example, they ran one where the angels were singing from heaven, and below on earth a hifi critic piped up: “I can hear a little mid range honk”. EDIT Where I said are, seems almost ‘were’. www.creative-audio.co.uk/index_new.php

Not that I’d remember. 😛😋

He said that the adverts were one of his favourite parts of the business, as they could have a bit of fun. He’s going to have a look through his attic to see if he can find some of the old adverts, but as they were generated from old fashioned transparencies, they might not be able to be photographed. He is still dabbling with selling on eBay, at his leisure and gives best wishes to everyone on the forum.

Transparencies might not be easily photographed but can be scanned with a dedicated slide scanner or a regular flatbed scanner with DIY adapter.

Or using a light-box & photographing with a digital camera.

I actually have two A3 scanners capable of scanning transparencies, one an old Agfa Duoscan T2000XL (parked, specs not to hand, on another PC, that has a separate tray with inserts for scanning various film and slide formats under the glass) and a Microtek ScanMaker 9800XL with the TMA 1600 transparency adapter, which scans from the top, an active lid so to speak, which is in use and out on a table in the workroom. But that's all irrelevant from NZ to UK. Any decent photography shop might have scanning from slides (transparencies) facilities available for a small fee, surely!
Further resources for those interested, an old but useful site:

Or, not to hand, I have a memory of a site describing using an adapter or some means of using a modern digital camera to take the output of a slide projector directly; maybe its lens was removed, I might be mistaken, I'll have to look it up.
But for the Creative Audio concern, surely there will be a business somewhere hopefully near by that can scan those slides at hi res & digitise.

Amazing. I only remember 2 of these - the NAIM and the Sandwich. Can anyone identify the smart(ie) remote? The hifi show where the Linn Intek was released was my first show as a retailer. Look at some of those brands sold! Ion, Dual, Royd.....
