It includes a detailed planning and preparation for the Centenary show in 1998, together with a resume of entertainment for members and foreign friends. Details of the catalogue, parade of Champions and judges report, along with photographs of the show.

A list of Champions since 1998 and photos precedes a ‘look back’ at personalities and dogs of the 19^th century. A preamble to the running a successful dog club precedes an update from the Bedlington Terrier Health Group.

The final pages include a ‘visual’ interpretation of the breed standard, a complete index and over 60 pages of colour advertisements.
