Memorabelia / Brochures

[RUDDY]

Just wondered who else on here collects dealer brochures etc, I never gathered a big collection of RS brochures, had copies of the popular ones. I know there are a couple on here with superb RS collections.

I have recently got back into collecting TR7 brochures tho', I think if BL had spent some of their advertising budget on sorting the car instead of advertising it they might have been onto a winner

So who collects what then ?

ps, if anyone has any TR7 brochures, especially foreign ones which they would like to sell please drop me a pm.

cheers, Paul

I regret to say that when I was selling these new in 1977 to 1979, we threw tons of these brochures away when they became out of date, or changes were made to the models etc.

I only wish I knew what I know now!............we sold the whole BL range!

Not even got one brochure left from those days!

Tim.

[kelps]
