Certainly will be one of the very last! I've always been rather partial to this model of PP!
|

Ah! From the days when Thorn battens were made from more than tin foil! Look after a few of these for a church (some still have cover plate screws rather than the turn buckles) must be a good 30 yrs old now, all still going strong!

|
The spine is still the original from the 1970's fittings - the Thorn logo embossed into it is the 70's logo!
|

|
If only they'd have kept it like this!
|
|

|
Yes, always thought these were well made, quality fittings, to be honest, most stuff they made back then was quality!
|

Yep much better than todays crap, with good atlas gear. Watch out for those turnbuckles though, they can break/snap over time
|
|

|
Yeah the turnbuckles can go brittle. Not much chance of these getting brittle with the little amount of use it's likely to get!
|

|
my school is still lit up mostly by these
|

|
I wonder for how much longer?
