Folk may be interested to hear that the good folk over at the Pacific Bulb Society have digitised the complete series of The Bulb Newsletter published by Brian Mathew from 1993 to 2001. They are full of interesting and useful information. They can be accessed on the PBS website here and the password is: bulbmania

This is a great resource and something for which the PBS can be rightly proud in bringing to the internet. 
Well done  PBS and Thanks to Brian Mathew, too.

Maggi and Matt:

I was going to make an announcement but was waiting for a couple of the files to be cleaned up.

We got permission from Brian and had them scanned and uploaded.

SRGC''s own David Pilling who does a great, great  deal of volunteer work for the PBS has placed them on our site.


PBS is now a non-profit here in the States and one of our core missions to to make Bulb info readily available to all.

Ah those were the days, we were stunned when it ceased.
