Mr Clark, who admits he is "a bit of a hoarder", collected the 
Electronics magazine issues, as well as others, after the 
Philips Central Library in the UK - now closed - started 
to clean them out. 

"I could feel the hairs standing up on my arms. I think 
I've got that, I thought - although I wasn't sure." - David Clark 

"In the 70s, they started throwing out large quantities of these 
magazines," he said. 

"I was in my 20s at the time and thought you shouldn't throw them 
out because they are recording the golden age of electronics." 

He gave several hundreds of them a home first in his loft, then 
under the floorboards and had not looked at them since.
