Today we have a selection of photographs which date from 1982.
One of today’s photographs is of Libby Sufferin from Crumlin with her father and uncle’s first prize winning heifer Ballyclan Snowgem at the Ballymena Show in June 1982.
Another is of Charles Suffern of Crumlin pictured at the Ballymena Show in June 1982 with the supreme champion Ayrshire cow, which headed all the dairy breeds at the show. Mrs Orr presented the Ballymena Livestock Mart sash to Mr Suffern.

And there is also a photograph of Ernest Foster of Greyabbey, Co Down, and his daughter, Dianne, with their prize winning ponies at the Ballymena Show.
