Thank you received: 215

Had a trip to the Northern Arms Fair at Leeds today.
It is a mix of mostly arms dealers the majority being German influenced but it does have a small showing of general militaria.
I managed to find a few items which I was quite pleased with, comments from the forum most welcome.
I particullary like the Mafeking tribute medal, I am sure it is quite common but it is the first one I have seen, any extra information would be helpfull.
The books are new to me, I have heard of the "Black & White" magazine but not seen them in book form before.
"Under the Union Jack" has some great images, quite a lot I have not seen before, it was in poor condition but I have managed a repair.

Thank you for looking.
Paul
