BIGGER AND BETTER

A hundred years have passed since Queen Victoria opened in London the first 'Great Exhibition' and revealed to the world the manifold ways in which British enterprise, and skill were pioneering to increase the ease and interest of life. For some time past, we have been planning to celebrate this -anniversary by a Festival in which every aspect of British life will be on display. In particular, we are making the 1951 British lodustries Fair an occasion for the world to see the full extent of our recovery and our resources. We can promise that the B.L.F., like British Industry itself, will be bigger and belter than ever. Over three thousand exhibitors, from a hundred trade groups will put their latest and finest products on show.

Few enterprising buyers will miss this unparalleled opportunity of seeing what Britain has now to offer. Thousands have nude early arrangements for their visit, so please make your reservations without delay.
