Stephen Devine of Devine Lights is pleased to announce a partnership with Jon Primrose, owner of The Strand Archive – www.strandarchive.co.uk
The Strand Archive was built by Jon over a number of years and it is now one of the very few resources where information on vintage Strand Lighting equipment can be accessed. The archive is now regarded as the definitive website for information.
Like all things that evolve like this, Jon has a lot of information to put up and very little time to do it. He felt the only way forward was to get another person involved in the venture.
The plan is to get all the information Jon has, along with all the information Steve has, use a professional web developer and build a new site that is far more comprehensive and reflects the importance of the resource.
Consideration is being given to establishing other archives for other brands of equipment once this one is established.
The joint venture will expand the archive and provide data on all of Strand Lightings discontinued and vintage equipment.
Discussions are underway with a number of vendors in UK, Europe, Australia and the USA so that users will be able to hire or buy some of the vintage equipment via the website.
Enquiries in the first instance to Stephen Devine devineretrolights@gmail.com
