THE ORIGINAL THRILL RIDE - Carters Steam Yachts
Such a terrible shame that all the rides have now been sold off separately and that Carters Steam Fair will never operate again! So much of John Carters family history was in that fair and it was so unique. Great shame as it was always so nicely presented.
Is this course still available
Yes, please follow this link : jobycarter.com/courses/five-day-intensive-signwriting-course/
I’ve tried so many time to order your two books without getting to the last part. When I input my info, all freezes up and my order never goes thru. I am in the states. Is there any reason why my order may not be completed? Thank you.
The books are available here jobycarter.com/product-category/books/ Please contact us on this website if you are still having issues.
@@CartersSteamFairOnline I did receive the two books already. I’m the one in Oklahoma. Thank you. I’m preparing a room at the house with some tables to practice on and I will be ordering some brushes. I got me some cheap ones in the meantime. Thank you again. Y’all have the most amazing time ever. I will keep watching your you tube videos. Until next time.
I'v bought a few books but your book is the best of the best now I'v got your that's it I'll not need to anymore books, so many thanks, one day may even get one one of your classes. :)
Setting up your fair is a really great analogy for sign layout. My dad and grandfather were signpainters, and the only layout they did, and the way I was taught, was ticks on a guideline.
No Bonus ..
I'm so very sorry you had to sell your family's park. I had my partner fly Sydney, Australia to England to do your five day course. I'm retired and taught both here in Sydney and in the USA. I so loved the style of you works and the level of your painting skills. I do miss teaching, as i miss the interaction with my students, and to this day I get calls asking me small technical questions, and i still service equipment for one importer, as I've known him for over 40 years. The main difference is I limited my Air Brush classes to 6 people and had the students do the identical projects so we were all on the same page.... Fiona was one of my students and like you I ended up getting her to work for me, and 30 years later she owns and has expanded the course. Kind Regards ... Ken (They call me Airbrush Ken as I did work for Paasche back in the late 60's and early 70's.... Thanks Joby... I only wish I was able to go with her to see you in action... side note>> still own some "French Quills" and "Mack" brushes from the 60's... I am old ... LOL
Great parnership Joby / Scarlett! Glad it worked so well. Look forward to reading the 'outcome'!

When is the class?
Absolutely adore carters
Toby the robertsons brothers from glasgow had a set that traveld in the 80s and ninteys all be it under diesel power . And then sold them to the dormans. I had the pleasure of riding them as a kid and also helped build up work on them and pull them down . I admire your ride very lovely
love that the chairs are being built up in the background
Remember as a young child going to Billy Smarts circus ...such a magical experience with all the wonderful animals within a gigantic size tent...
Worked with a fair ground wood caver
How do u get on curses Linda brislin?
How do u get in tuth I do not now how to use book face or Linda brislin?
Vibrates too much in your ears the sound for me.
They have got fantastic designs on them the appearance is fine but the noise oooooooh.
It’s too loud for me at steam fairs with all the fairground organ music but i like listening to them from just audio through speakers I’m better with that and it playing through UA-cam audio.
Would love to do a course one day
Sign writing has always fasinated me
Would love a Scammell to haul my equipment
Interesting, when I was a kid, 60 years ago, I loved the fair being constructed
Your handiwork looks great. Bro I am a Bangladeshi I have 10 years of experience as a sign writer. I am in 3D. neon sign letter sign I can work on painting. Can I work in America, can I do any writing work by hand. Can you help me? I will be happy if you tell me
" All the fun of the fair" . I recently got this guys book and for 20 odd quid I can genuinely say it's one of the best books I've ever bought, great stuff and worth every penny.
How many showtracks do you have. And would you do a video of driving one.
Defiantly the best ride of all time.
*scribbling down notes for a dnd campaign with an early 20th century carnival*
JUST LIKE HIS DAD.
Cool video
Wonderful work. I well remember in the late 1950'S at the London, Clapham Common Fair watching the men of Saunder's Amusements building up the Lightning Skid. At the time the winch and crane mounted on the front of the Scammell tractor was not working so the men had to manhandle the various components. When it came to the driving motor and mechanism it took the entire crew to lift it off the trailer and maneuver it into position. Mr. Saunders sauntered over and muttered "This is torture. You have to get that crane fixed". Everything about the Skid was heavy from the cars, the fish; mechanism and motor. A wise decision to mount the mechanism on a trailer. Thanks for posting,
Hi Denis, wow thank you for that story! You have great memory, definitely a lot easier now than before, if you have any pictures I'd love to see them! :) (Send them to admin@cartersfair.com)
When I first started working in graphic design late 70s early 80s EVERYTHING was hand done. The logos hand drawn with pens and the dreaded leteraset was our apple macs😅I'd love to to this course closest I came to it was flash lettering on daygo paper for shop signs. I advanced to a shop sign for relate marriage guidance shop😅as I'm too ill to attend this amazing course I'm going to buy the book. Goal is to do grandkids initial letters for their walls.
Hi Sonia, we will have courses later on in the year as well if you'd like to attend! Check out our website www.carterssteamfair.co.uk/ Let us know if you enjoy the book, we love to hear feedback on it :)

Always following up from kenya ...my question is, does it mean , an artist who uses stencil to copy n paste his art isn't so real as the hand drawn one? My art teacher used to warn me about using stencils but only later to realize he have been using it all along, somehow also found myself , feeling like i should always take theshortcut for my personal jobs but ave never felt proud of it nomater how good the art is...
Stunning wagons
Lovely looking wagons
