TonyMac Posted February 15, 2006 Report Share Posted February 15, 2006 We at Retro Speedway are in the process of producing a series of new biographies on three former world class riders. They are: MALCOLM SIMMONS The late TOMMY JANSSON ERIC BOOCOCK What we're looking for, to hopefully illustrate in the book itself, are items of related memorabilia that can be adapted for printing in the book. Stuff like rosettes, stickers, posters (we already have Eric Booey's Testimonial brochure from 1974), ticket stubs, etc, etc, which have a distinct relation to the riders themselves. We would merely wish to borrow items for scanning before returning them to their owners. And the pay off is a nice mention for you in the credits section of the book! So if you were a fan of any of the above three riders, and think you have something useful to offer any of these three books, pse get in touch. If you'd rather reply in private, pse email me at editorial@retro-speedway.com Many thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you. Tony Mac PS - All three books will be out by the summer....

TonyMac Posted February 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2006 (edited) There was a book published in Sweden last year about Tommy Jansson.The title was Utan bromsar - without brakes. Thanks Lejon, The book on Tommy that we will be publishing in May of this year (and which has the enthusiastic and full support of Tommy's family) is, in fact, an English translation of Magnus Nystrom's excellent book that came out in Sweden last year. But there will be more words and many new pictures added as we remember Tommy on the 30th anniversary of his tragic death.
