The general title of Eaton Bray Model Sportsdrome hides a multitude of activities, not perhaps appreciated by everyone. To make our varied activities more widely known, we have prepared a number of leaflets on our work which we will gladly send you. Here in brief are our principal activities.

The 72 acre aerodrome itself is fully equipped for regular model aircraft meetings, model race cars, motor cycle grass track racing. Regular aeromodelling Instructional camps. Lavatories. Parking, Catering. Camping. (Eaton Bray Gazette No. 1, gives you full particulars.)

Our photographic studios provide prints of pictures from "Aeromodeller," "Model Cars" or other of our publications. North London Bookbinding Company binds our books – and will bind your copies of "Aeromodeller" or any other binding you want done (E.B.G. No. 2 for details.)

Aeromodeller Plans Service has a separate announcement, but Drysdale Plans Service should not be forgotten when you need boat, car or workshop accessory plans. (New list now ready.)

"Model Cars" and "The Model Mechanic" are published from Eaton Bray and are the best possible journals for all interested in model car racing and building, or model engineering of any sort (Specimen copy, 1/6 each or the two 2/9.)

The famous "Harborough Publications" need little introduction, offering a range of thirty or more model aircraft books, covering every aspect of the hobby, as well as many fullsize aviation publications. (Send for special book list.)

"Masco" Products include the famous "Masco" Kitten model car construction key, a wide range of castings and workshop accessories. (New 16-page Catalogue just published.)

Then there are "Dagra" models, our precision scale models, as produced for leading aircraft manufacturers. (Prices from £25 upwards.)

Please send for all or any of our informative literature, and let us know if you would like to be informed from time to time of our activities and new productions.
