Yesterday I visited Raymond Walls, at his Motoring Memories Heritage Museum, at Ballygowan Co Down. Raymond very kindly gave me a walk round the vast array of motoring memorabilia that he has collected over the last 40 years.
This museum, is a unique private collection featuring early petrol cans, petrol pumps, oil cans & pourers and enamel road signs. The collection also includes AA and RAC collectables and the largest collection of petrol pump globes in the British Isles.
The collection has to be the best of its type found anywhere on the island of Ireland. It surely ranks in the top five of any such collections in the whole of the UK.
A tour of the collection is a must for anyone interested in motoring memories /history/'artifacts' from this part of the word. Suggested donations of £10 per person, are gratefully received. Money raised goes to a nominated charity.
The Raymond Walls Motoring Memories Memorabilia Heritage Museum is, 'The best of the Past, Preserved in the Present for the Pleasure of the Future.'
Don't you miss it!
Raymond's collection is massive. This video is the first part of a video session I did with Raymond that day.
Thanks to Raymond Walls for allowing me to do this accompanied walk round of his excellent collection.
