Folks,
I have been using this website as a source of free material.
http://archive.org/
Ok, I know it's aimed at old movie enthusiasts and I used it to search for material about the Festival of Britain in 1951. There are two movies.
However, upon more detailed searching such as looking for 'radio repair', a number of clips/books/technical reports can be found which may be of interest. Ok, I know it is 'american' orientated and a bit of a mess to search but I suppose this is normal when an archive is growing all the time.
I'll leave it up to you lot to have a look and decide what if anything, is worth downloading. It's not the easiest archive to work your way through, but it certainly has an incredible amount of material and it's free so I'm not complaining at all.
If anyone finds some good material, please post your find on here.
I found this as an example:-

Thanks and I hope that's Ok with the mods. It's all non-copyright material.
