Ferrari Brochures
Discussion
Can't answer your question specifically but i checked out a Ferrari brochure i had from 1982 at the NEC Classic a few years back.
When i was about twelve i wrote to Maranello Concessionaires in my best joined up writing expressing interest in purchasing a Ferrari (as you do!!) and very kindly received a brochure back (it even had the official stamp on the back)
The brochure had a pic of Villeneuve in action on the front cover and a picture of each car in the range per page. No real technical specs just glossy pictures on each page that probably ended up being cut out and blu tacked onto various bedroom walls.
After giving a dealer on a trade stand at the show the above description he said it was most likely a brochure more commonly known as a schoolboy catalogue. He actually had one for sale that matched my catalogue which was about £10 at the time IIRC.

I did exactly the samething in the early eighties, wrote to marranello quite a few times and got these brochures back. I think I still have some, but in my madness at that age they were cut up and put on the wall of my bed room.

I think they do change hands on the bay for as low as £5, but they are good.
The more modern ferrari brochures are very good and seem to attact higher values. I have been able to pick up quite a few for free over the years.
360CS and 430 scud brochures are amoung my own favorites.
