Section B

The Collection of David Reilly 

David has achieved exalted "guru" status in the world of the classic S-type. Over the years, his regular newsletters have created a unique archive of knowledge and photos on these splendid Jaguars. I was delighted (and flattered) when he asked me to deal with his collection.

Customers of a certain age (i.e. my age!) will remember the still ads that used to appear in cinemas before the main feature film.

This item was run by Hewitts Garages Ltd in Amblecote, between Stourbridge and Dudley in the West Midlands. It shows an S-type parked in the countryside, probably unique. Incidentally, although Hewitts are no longer at Amblecote, they are still very much in business in the Stourbridge area. Fine. Probably unique.
