This is a collection of photographs and captions from an exhibition, apparently showing the development of Civic, held in about 1986. There were at least 32 images, although some are now missing. Included are two images that were probably used but which do not now have captions (A1 – A2), and three larger images that appear to have been rejected as subjects for the exhibition (A3 – A5). A6 and A7 may be two of the missing images. Numbers 1 to A2 and A6 and A7 are sepia prints 10x15cm; the last three are 13x18 cm.
