Help please.
In 1966 in the Tunbridge Wells area I joined the first 'Beginners Course' of a Club where I was taught Kyokushinkai Karate by John Jenkins. It was an experience and a challenge I have never forgotten.
On 28th August 1967 the Karate Club under John Jenkins gave a 'demonstration' at the Summer Fair, River Lawn, Tonbridge on behalf of Tonbridge Athletic Club.
Sometime later my Instructor John Jenkins gave to me copies of photos that were taken at this event and may have been published in the Kent & Sussex Courier or retained by the Courier.
I remained 'active' in Karate until 1973. I have never forgotten John or the people I trained with.
I have lost all of my photos, can somebody please tell me how to obtain photos that are probably within the Archives of the Kent & Sussex Courier. I have tried but I must be doing something wrong.
Who could I phone or contact to find photographs for that particular time?
I would be grateful for any help.
Thank you
Roy Willard
