Sorting through some paperwork at home I came across this. No idea how I came to have it. It's a glimpse back to simpler times.

Superb !

Wonder what that Cortinas registration number was and if Mr. Customer is still around for his story on his new Cortina ??

‘Pictures available if required’ brilliant!

Wonderful reading. Thanks.

Different days. I have a couple of copies of old Autocar/Motor magazines from the 50's / 60's and the journalistic style is just so Mr Cholmondley-Warner.....

Those old magazines had hardly any (black and white!) photos, pages of prose. The only colour in the magazine was the front cover (and that was an advertisement!).

Can you imagine how formal it was?

'...a party to launch the new Ford model...'

"How do you do?"
"How do you do?"


ETA Apologies, that's exactly what alfaspecial was saying.
