Booklet for the Golden Jubilee of the Jaguar Apprentices Motor Club – May 1955 to May 2005.

A decision fortunately reversed when privatisation saw the return of common sense in 1984! A truly historic document. Fine.

General Jaguar Books
“Jaguar Guide” by John Bentley.
This small paper-back from the States is a real milestone Jaguar book. Sports Car Press, 1957. Tells the story of the cars and the company starting with the Swallow days in Blackpool and moving forward to the glories of the 1950s. So far, so familiar. However, as far as I have been able to confirm this book was actually the first in the world to travel that now well-worn path. As a small paper-back, printed on poor paper and seriously out-of-date, this is a good example of the sort of book that is of minimal interest to the car fan, but is very special for the Jaguar bibliophile. VG. Rare. Historic.
