I remember working on the stage lighting there-the Gaiety when it had adelicolour board which was up in the wings
,Follow spot arcs where at back of the circle,great light,with good but oftern very stiff shutter , and rod burning controls ThE DIMMERS WERE ALL LEVERS,WHICH FITTED TO MASTER WHEELS POOR VISIBILTY OF STAGE,VERY DIFFICULT TO ANGLE PROC ARCH BAR LIGHTS-DUE TO DIFFICULT ACCESS Lighting thus,I was there in 1968,with Scout Gang Show-brought all lamps etc across on ferry,from Liverpool-MANXMAN.

Alas, they threw out the Delicolor before they got the taste for preserving equipment.

I did unearth a number of photos of Delicolor boards from the Furse archive. They are currently in our Administrator’s garage (and he recently died) so not readily available. In due course, though, I will check them to see if Douglas is amongst them.
