Pics of Ads, Bits N Pieces

[Vectra]

Wondered if anyone else collects digitally or normally, old car ads, brouchures, touring car ads, posters, decals etc.
Found there is a fair bit worth salvaging via ebay and other sites, old mags and the like.
How about a thread to post pics of ads, posters and the like...see what you think.
I'll start off with an old Torana GTR ad I found in a Modern Motor I got at a market a while back.

(Leave the water marks at home though :-)

Not really but I got a few old posters of ebay a few years ago, for I think $3 of some of Dicks cars and jamed in the middle there was an official race bulletin from 1986 dicks mustang, stating all times and what dick needed to change etc before the race. Thought that was cool and prob worth a few$
Also had a add for a cobra But gave it to Ross Stone when he got his cobra, because he and his team help me out Quit a bit

I've been goig to the Bris Motor show the last 2 years and have kept my brochures from various manufacturers.

I've also collected Motor magazines over the last 4 or 5 years

[david5]

Ive got a lot of Wheels magazines from the late 50s,60s & early 70s,
about 25 Bathurst programs, RCN from the 80s & 90s, MRA from #1 onward for about the first 5 years, all the AMC, different race programs Ive attended.Got most Commodore,Monaro & ute brochures from the period I worked at the Holden Dealership, 99 till 2005. I keep them all in two filing cabinets.

I need a bigger room.

Cheers David

I've got every Bathurst program since the first time I went there - that's 35 years & obviously I will get 08's to add to the collection.

I'm trying to get a hold of the 1960 PI Programme

Can anyone help?

[the_goldie]

I have all the Bathurst programmes from 1971 to current (except 1973) have missed a few on eBay recently and wasn't happy. It's a slow process to find them but it's fun and sometimes expensive.

Nice one, think you visit the same places I do ! :)
The images are not always perfect due to camera angles etc, not always that big either, but I must have well more than a 1000 or so images that I run as a screen saver....Old program, book and magazine covers, Brochures, Newspaper ads, Posters, Pictures and that sort of thing.
I'm too much of a collector to buy all this stuff, as I live in a unit and between models, touring car stuff, Bathurst videos, Books and programs, scooping up a few digital things takes a lot less room.

Take the next 3 posters....think I might have only seen them twice while I've been looking, bit distorted, but well worth a save .

I have the top one burried deep somewhere. When winfield got axed they were giving them away at nearly every servo and shop around

[Chev_350]

Oh I had a ton of these posters when I was a kid (Who would have thought couldn't get away with giving cigarette promo stuff to a kid now but we had a family owned a shop an I always made friends with the reps to get poster and anything else Winfield racing) I always found it funny that in some of the posters there was a plain blue car but was never on the telecasts, this was about 1993 - 1994 and I was 8, Had to ask the folks after a while and was surprised to learn it was Glen Seaton's airbrused car.

[Road Runner 72]

Yeah, great sites out there!!!

These 2 are my fav's!

Hey like that one, hadn't seen the torana one that big before....Stonie's always good.....
Heres another, bit a bit skewed by camera angle and a smaller torana Bathurst one.

Hey, I saw the poster you are talking about, going around a left hander with Seto and the pack behind the Wini car......Looks really strange with no advertising on the blue ford of Seto's.
Ah, the power of advrtising....reckon they could have got another shot :D

Here's a few from a great cartoonist.

[Vectra]

This is the cover from a Stonie cartoon book I got a while ago...

http://i291.photobucket.com/albums/ll295/BianteHol den/StonieA.jpg

[Vectra]

After looking at the last cover, remembered I had an old "10 Top Drivers" with a Stonie cover...

Scanned it, and here it is...Most faces us oldies will know, but aslo in there is Greg Carr (Rally Driver) & John McCormack (F5000 etc)

27 was senna's number from that year, but it's nigel mansell in the photo.the union jack on the helmet gives it away.also, senna's helmet was gold with green and blue bands. the car number should be 2.

[Skaife fan]

[GSXR1]

It may be commemorating 1990 race but depiction is of wet 1989 race, with Mansell in the #27 Ferrari and Patrese in the #6 Williams
