Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Very Good. A very early photo from Saudi Arabian Airlines (Saudia)'s formative years. Original b/w photo 21x16cm, with the manufacturer's negative number in the print, and ms entered on its ink stamp to the verso. Near fine, creased to one corner. This presents a side on view of SA-AAA with Saudi flag on its tail, taken on the tarmac at Filton prior to its delivery to Saudi Arabia in January 1949. This was the first of 5 Bristol 170 Freighters to be sent, with SA-AAB to SA-AAE delivered later the same year. The state-owned Airline was established at Al-Kandara Airport outside Jeddah in September 1945, operated by TWA, with technical support from the US Air Force. Its first operations included a service for pilgrims from Lydda. Its first scheduled services to Riyadh, Hofuf and Dhahran began in March 1947 using ex-USAF Douglas C-47 Dakotas, followed by first international services to Cairo, Beirut, Karachi and Damascus by early 1948. Acquiring the Bristol 170s in 1949 gave the Airline flexibility to carry cargo as well as passengers, fitted with nose doors, a freight floor, 32 quickly removable passenger seats, and a moveable bulkhead. They remained in service for nearly 10 years. (Ref. Gloucestershire Transport History).

First Edition Signed
Condition: Good. The format is approximately 3.5 inches by 5.5 inches. The front is a large head and shoulders short of Ronnie Carroll and at the bottom the Philips logo and the statement Philips The Records of the Century. To the left of the head and across the shoulders is the inscription To Don Your Friend Ron Carroll. There is advertising text on the back. Ronnie Carroll (born Ronald Cleghorn; 18 August 1934 13 April 2015) was a Northern Irish singer, entertainer and political candidate. Carroll was born Ronald Cleghorn in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1934. In January 1954, 19-year-old Ronnie Cleghorn was appearing in a variety show at the Town Hall, Portadown billed as Belfast's Nat King Cole and the show went on to play at several locations in Northern Ireland. Coming across to England, Cleghorn joined a show called "Hollywood Stars" at the Queen's in Blackpool in March 1954 in which the cast gave impressions of trans-Atlantic screen personalities. He sang in the style of Nat King Cole in blackface. Cleghorn adopted the stage name of "Carroll" in May 1954 and the show toured the UK for the next eighteen months. He made his first television appearance on BBC's "Camera One" on 10 January 1956 singing "Love Is a Many Splendored Thing". He was given a recording contract by Philips and his first record "Last Love" was released on 1 February 1956. Carroll joined a touring show "New Faces of 1956" which began in Nottingham on 27 February 1956 and then he went into a radio show "Calling All Stars". Later that year, he was topping the bill on variety stages and his record "Walk Hand in Hand" was in the charts. He is the only singer to have represented the UK in the Eurovision Song Contest two years in succession. Having taken part in the 1960 UK Eurovision selection contest with the song "Girl with a Curl", he returned to win the selection and be Britain's entry in the 1962 contest, and with the song "Ring-a-Ding Girl" shared fourth place, the same placing he reached in 1963 with "Say Wonderful Things". This success was followed by two Top 10 hits during 1962 and 1963, but a lack of good material meant that he could not sustain a chart presence. In 1962 he appeared on the bill of "The Winifred Atwell Show". From Monday 17 September 1962, for one week only, he gave twice-nightly performances at the Brighton Hippodrome. Carroll subsequently worked on cruise ships, including the QE2, with John Marcangelo who was the drummer with the Ronnie Carroll Orchestra. He played a pop musician named 'Ronnie' in the 1963 film Blind Corner. He had many guest appearances on hit TV shows in the 1960s and early 1970s, including The Morecambe & Wise Show and Sez Les. In 2005, he released a comeback album, Back on Song. Through work in variety theater he met his first wife, Millicent Martin, they married in Barbados in 1958, remaining married until 1969. His company was called Ronnie Carroll Productions Ltd. His second wife was the Olympic runner June Paul and they married on 21 September 1970. They ran a successful nightclub in Grenada, which failed when there was a revolution and the airport runways were dug up, ending tourism for a time. He lived his last years in Hampstead, north London, and was a regular caller to radio phone-in shows on BBC London 94.9. He died in London on 13 April 2015, at age 80. In 1950 Dutch electronics company 'Philips Electrical Ltd' set up its Gramophone Division. Previously located in Great Portland Street in London, in May 1956 they acquired the Regency building, Stanhope House in Stanhope Place. Formally a set of flats, the building was redesigned to become the new headquarters to its UK record division. A studio was built in the large basement area for use by the labels own artists. The rooms above were used for a pressing plant and general offices. The main recording room was long and narrow measuring 60' x 20' with a 25' high ceiling. Although of a reasonable size, once filled with orchestral players, it gave the sense of being rather cramped in some musicians memories, The control room had a separate machine room with a small window between the two. The studio was initially equipped with a German, 8 input mono valve console, rebuilt in 1958 for stereo. They claimed to be the first studio in London to adopt 4 track recording. In the early sixties the studios started getting used for pop music under the guidance of A&R man and producer Johnny Franz.
