Searching through the loft of my late dad's house recently I came across a small booklet written by Christopher Baglee about this exhibition.
It took place in Newcastle-On-Tyne May to Oct 1929
(My dad was born in Portsmouth in 1929 and hated fairs so not sure what it was doing there or how he had come to get it.)
During the six months that the Exhibition was open it attracted 4.5 million visitors!!
Of interest to me are the rides at the fairground there: There's a black and white print (not too clear) showing a ride called The Incubators, Jack and Jill (Slide like that once at BPB many years back) and ..a Water Chute!!
If Hugo Hasse's first Side Friction Water Chute appeared at the Munich Festival of 1928, and was then rebuilt at the Pleasure Beach, Great Yarmouth in 1929 I wonder where this ride fits in?
Can anyone shed light?
Thanks
