Above is some correspondence between Rochdale NF and the film makers like Jim Sawyer and Mr. (Jim?) Macintyre both of whom lived in the London area and now no doubt both passed away ? The old reel celluloid films were shown to NF meetings across the UK at that time.The letter above to me by Jim Sawyer is among the many letters and files that I still possess.As the films are fairly readily available now on 'YouTube' and on disc, I think it is very important to remember the people who filmed these demonstrations, and also arranged for them to be shown to the NF members at meetings and gatherings at that time.If it wasn't for them, a huge archive of visual information would have been lost. As the 'controlled mass media' failed in their duty to inform the public of these sometimes huge marches that took place in the 1970's. For example; the Remembrance day parades to the Cenotaph in London in the years 1976 to 1978, up to 10,000 people were on those NF marches.
