The Friendship Circle of Showland Fans celebrated their Silver Jubilee in 1964 with a grand Steam Fair at Shottesbrooke Park, White Waltham.  This very memorable event was extremely well organised, well promoted and very well attended by showfolk, enthusiasts and the public.

It was estimated that 200,000 people attended this Steam Fair over the three days.  People came from far and wide to see a traditional steam driven fairground in action.  ”Hats off” to all those who organised this truly great and memorable event.
