Established in 1976 COSTUME HIRE by Vintage Years was soon serving the people of Leicester and surrounding districts in their needs for fancy dress.

It was quickly realised by the founder Mike Berman that there was a much greater need for proper high quality professional costumes to a much wider variety of clientele. These included amateur dramatic and musical societies and a growing number of businesses who wanted costumes and properties for advertising, training, promotional and other purposes.

Now many years later COSTUME HIRE by Vintage Years have become probably the most comprehensive suppliers of costumes and accessories in the Midlands.

Hornby Trains were an instant success and the company was quick to introduce more engines and accessories.

In 1938, Hornby Dublo (‘00’) was launched. 

1965 saw the formation of Tri-ang Hornby. The Tri-ang Hornby period is best remembered by many for the change to British Rail blue liveries on diesel locomotives, the introduction of pre-Nationalisation liveries for steam locomotives and the launch of Battle Space and Battle Zone. Some of the locomotives produced during this time included the E3000, Hymek, Class 37, M7, Hall Class, Coronation Class, Flying Scotsman and Evening Star.

There was a steady flow of new locomotives during the 1970s -  new diesels included the High Speed Train (HST) which became a popular model instantly.

The Thomas series was launched in 1985.

Now simply called "Hornby", the company justifiably retains the position it has held for more than 50 years as Britain’s leading model railway manufacturer.

Hornby - Making Models Real

Mini Moderns is a range of interiors products designed and produced by London based design and branding agency, Absolute Zero Degrees. It is a print driven collection including wallpaper, textiles and home accessories for kids (and kidults!) and design conscious families. The print designs are themselves at once retro, and modern, with influences ranging from textile designs of the 1950's to vintage toys and games. The initial wallpaper collection was snapped up by Heal's and the brand goes from strength to strength, selling both on line and via select stockists internationally.

Operating a predominantly 'Made in the UK' policy helps keep our carbon footprint to a minimum and supports local businesses. As the collection is produced in factories known to us, we can be confident that all Mini Moderns products come from sweatshop free environments.

MINI MODERNS FOR DESIGN CONSCIOUS FAMILIES.

Celia's Vintage Clothing was established  in 1980,  from small beginnings in Nottingham's antique centre on Derby  Road, selling collarless shirts, Victorian underwear, linen etc.

Our customer base is large and varied, from students to collectors, museums to dress designers, re-enactors to theatres  Many of our customers are fiercely loyal  and return to us time and again for that reliable service and unique one off item.

Celia's Fancy Dress started in 1999, with 2 floors of high quality costumes to hire. We also sell  a large range of  new accessories.

Our strength is in the quality of both departments. Everything is hand picked, clean, and well presented. Our knowledgeable staff offer a first rate old fashioned service, and we bend over backwards to help and advise.

I love vintage clothing, accessories and homeware and collect it myself. But sometimes a personal collection can get out of hand, and there is only so much stuff that can fit into a person’s home! However, when you’re out and about browsing and can see something absolutely beautiful, of which you have something similar already, it’s really difficult to walk away. So I started buying things that I thought certain friends would like. And it went on from there.

So everything you can see on our website has been handpicked by me and my husband. So that we can share the vintage love. We hope you feel the vintage love!

Midland are the UK's leading independent supplier of specialist pre-recorded budget CD and DVD products to non-traditional outlets. A family run business of some 50 years whose journey began on the rain and snow lashed markets of the  Midlands. The business expanded rapidly during the sixties and seventies with Midland becoming a leading player in the wholesale distribution of major label overstocks and deletions worldwide, whilst continuing to service the non traditional retail sector here in the UK.

With the industry wide problem of piracy and downloading making higher value products virtually impossible to retail, Midland felt the need to give our customers something different and have concentrated our efforts towards the more neglected areas of audio, visual home entertainment, and now stock what we believe to be the most comprehensive range of Special Interest DVD’s in the UK.

Our core business of supplying our customers with ranges of super budget and budget CD and DVD remains the same, but we have now incorporated these new specialist product lines aimed specifically at the online market place namely Amazon, Play, and Ebay.

With over 6000 titles available and new lines arriving daily we are confident that you will find many items that will compliment your existing range of product. Should you need any help with your initial selections please contact us, with over 50 years experience you can be sure our advice will prove invaluable.
