	From Dicky Howett - a request.... WHERE IS IT NOW? Dicky Howett asks - "The 'Top Town' trophy (a Northern precursor of Its a Knockout) seen here in 1956 with BBC producer Barney Colehan, was one of several beautifully crafted hand-built models (no doubt at great expense in the BBC's mechanical workshops) But who now 'holds' this trophy, which is an exquisite scale-model of a Marconi Mk 3 sitting on an Eclair 'Crab'.
	The full-scale item pictured is my own ex-BBC Manchester Marconi Mk 3 on an ex-BBC Manchester OB's Eclair 'Crab' pedestal. As can be seen, it's the exact combination of the model. Any information as to the trophy please contact me". Dicky Howett GOLDEN AGE TV +44 (0)1371 820155 efax 0870 1253762
