This is a tricky one. I am preparing a primer on vintage motoring - a sort of coffee table book introducing the newcomer to our sport and including plenty of inspiring photos of pre-war cars - anything from the dawn of motoring to the outbreak of WW2.
I am looking for photos, clear of copyright, which show our sort of cars being used, but I don't need any more Minor photos - at least for this particular project. I'm looking for other marques in trials, hill climbs, driving tests, racing, down the pub, on the open road, anywhere they are being used properly - both VSCC and non-VSCC types. Also 'discovery' photos, restoration in progress photos and so on. I'm also looking for really good period shots of the pre-war and wartime periods. I'll probably be contacting Beaulieu to use some Brunell shots, but I don't want to use anything that has already been published. Photos can be colour or black and white, but MUST be sharp, high resolution images.
Any offers?
