Business cards of the day....
Thanks to Peter Henderson for the use of his collection of photographs - all used with permission.
While I very much welcome all offers of photographs for this website, I do need to restrict what I can accept. In order to keep to the original aims of the bands pages, I can only take images of groups, bands or individuals who were part of the Teesside or Hartlepool music scene between 1960-1970. Maybe one day, space permitting, we can expand and head towards 1970-80!
