Can any one remember the Pentax Club circa 1980's,, does it still exist?
The Pentax Club ran along under Ron Splillman, then Peter Cox Associates and finally with Peter Bargh and Magezine Publishing. Thus from that came this website and eventually the actual printed magazine became uneconomic to continue. So here we all are, web only, but where The Pentax Club exists, now as Pentax User.
Best regards, John
You're still with it, right here.

It is an illusion that photos are made with the camera… they are made with the eye, heart and head. Henri Cartier-Bresson
Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.
My website
I had a square blue enamel pin badge which came from the Pentax Club, that I had attached to my MX shoulder strap from the 80s to the noughties, when I got my *istDS. It had the eye symbol that was on the outside of the film-era ever-ready cases, plus the letters AP in the centre. The pin snapped when I tried to transplant it to the DS strap, so it has since disappeared...

That might be the one I'm thinking of.
