Like you I also have the "slimjim" tie in blue, with silver Albert. I received it from the Lockheed rep after completing my first full year on White team at Colerne, that would be sometime in 1971. I also have the copper based etching of Albert. I wonder how many of us retained such memorabilia, whilst failing to do so for other aircraft we worked/flew on. My only other piece is a brass Vulcan, and where I got that I have no idea. As for the tie, I still wear it, when appropriate.
Coff, that's a stunning photograph, though having seen the aircraft at low level the other day, it does little to help decrease its visibility.
Well done all for pumping some new life into the old dog, let's hope it continues as R4 suggests.
