Found these today, authentic Shedule of Repair Charges books, dating from the mid thirtys up to the sixties, and all with that proper "old" smell... From 1935:  In pretty poor nick, but from 1961:  With a lot of pages stuck together, from 1963:  Surviving well inspite of the torn cover, 1958:  Scruffy, 1957 issue:  1952:  1960:  1964:  1954:  1959:  1960:  1959:  And a little more random: Brake testing certificates!  So there we are, I don't know if its of any interest to anyone, but I thought I'd share my find  |

You knows it ive recently been sorting out alot of my dads old stuff, general autojumble tat, oily workshop manuals, mags, parts catalogues from the 60's/70's and whilst its been where it is for about 6 years, it smells like its been there for about 50 years! I am currently working out a way to bottle the smell, I recon £50 a bottle to you sir? lol |
