VINYL record collectors were in a spin at an event in York city centre this weekend.

A record collectors’ fair was held in The Basement at the City Screen cinema on Coney Street on Saturday.

Dealers from across the country brought thousands of LPs, rare CDs and other collectible items to the event.

An expert was on hand to offer free valuations of customers’ records and there were displays of rare LP sleeves.

People were invited to bring along their unwanted records and CDs for cash or exchange.

Adrian Melling, who organised the event, said: “It went very well.

“We had about 300 people attend the event, which is about normal.

“We had some nice things brought in. We got an original Rolling Stones album - Their Satanic Majesties Request - which was a rare one.”

The next record collectors’ fair in The Basement at City Screen will take place on July 7.
