Beschreibung:

An almost complete bound run of Motor Sport from Vol.1 No.1 to Vol.58 No.12 , a rare chance to acquire a comprehensive collection in blue leather and cloth bindings with gilt tooling, from the original 'Brooklands Gazette' issues in 1924 until the end of 1982, Vols.1, 2, 3, 6, 23 and onwards all with publisher's index, Vols.1, 2, 3 without covers, Vol.5 only including No.1 (unbound) and lacking issues Nos.2 and 3, Vol.40 and onwards in original publisher's black cloth bindings, mostly in very good condition with pages clean and free of marks, rust burns, creases, tears or other blemishes (57) Motor Sport has always been essential reading for British enthusiasts, its front cover proudly bearing British Racing Green for many years now. Not so long ago the current publisher decided red covers would help sales, but an adverse reaction occurred and readers actually boycotted the magazine until the BRG was reinstated.
