A brief history of the Mirror Class Association
According to Stewart Bottoms:
Prior to Reflections and Sally Karslake (Wallis) the Secretariat was run from DMPD by Phillip Lenson. Communication was a newsletter.
Editors note: the first issue of reflections was October 1971, so the change from the Daily Mirror Publicity Department, was, (I'm guessing here), agreed on at the 1971 AGM (at the Nationals) and effective from 30th September, which ties in with the current MCA financial year.
Yearbooks for period (Editors note: early 70s) have a disappointing lack of pics and Reflections is little better. However, I came across issue from 1973 and Roy Partridge writing (front page) “a Pom in Aussie land” and a pic.. UK sec ran MCIA at this time so pic (Editors note: of Peter & Rusell Barnes) may come from Aus.
