Leo Villa's Bluebird Album
Transport Bookman Publications, 2007. Hardcover. Fine Condition/Fine. 9780851840710 Clean unmarked pages, firm binding; slight shelfwear to jacket edges. Complete with 3-D glasses. I cannot rate this book highly enough. It is wonderful. I thought that the first time I saw it in March 2007, and I still think that. The finest collection of wonderful colour photographs charting the historic record breaking exploits of Donald Campbell and his Bluebird team. This is a very important book, for without it, the record of Campbell's exploits in colour, would never have been able to be told. A must have for anyone with even a passing interest in this subject. The photographs, both black and white and colour, with many taken by Leo Villa - Campbell's chief engineer, are historical gems. (Reader review) 256 pages. Quantity Available: 1.

Graham Robson
Triumph Spitfire & GT6 Spitfire 1,2,3,Iv,1500; Gt6 1,2,3
Osprey Publishing , 1982. Hardcover. Near Fine Condition/Near Fine. 9780850454529 Firmly bound, clean unmarked pages; slight handling wear to jacket, colour fading on spine. This book is an engaging window into the early development of the Spitfire (and GT6), its sporting efforts, subsequent tweaks and facelifts, and eventual demise. Robson worked at Standard-Triumph in the early 60's and the book is packed with photos and nuggets of information. A chapter is devoted to the works racing programme in 1964-65, which I found particularly illuminating. It's not just dry facts and figures, you get a sense of the people running the company and how decisions were made. (Reader review) 192 pages. Quantity Available: 1.
