The Roaring Season

1972 ; The final Edition the tenth- in 1973 a different style of Book was sponsored / published by Shell.
The last few covered the whole Tasman Series - as noted on the cover.
That was when the British and European Drivers came downunder for " our " Summer.

The 1972 and 1973 Books and a couple of photos from 1966 - the 1965-66 Season

1972;
The 1973 Book - a Review of the 1972 - 73 Season, as the cover states;
A Bigger Book and the cost had risen from 95c in 1972 to $2.00 - the original issues starting at 5/- [ 50c ] in the 1960's

Not an interesting back Cover.

The 1966 Edition was the only one where the Cover Photo extended to the back Cover.
The Image - edited;
In the Colour Centre Pages is this set of " Sports Cars " - 2 very well known NZ Specials and an Italian Exotic.

The 1961 Brochure for the Jaguar E Type as given to my Uncle at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1961.
It was an 8 page brochure with spiral binding [ as seen ] and photos of 3 versions of the car Coupe, Roadster, and Roadster with Hardtop.

Not for Sale - but happy to provide copies of scans for any owners out there.

Here are 3 of the pages. incl Cover.
Photo of the Coupe, as driven by Norman Dewis, Jaguar Test Driver to the Motor Show.
I understand the the central grille bar was fitted at the show
The Roadster.
Back when GT meant Grand Touring or " Gran Tourismo " - A car for Touring with style.

Would like to see any photos of the Car [ cars - was there a Roadster as photographed or just the Coupe ? ] at the Show.
