Garage find
 
A good friend of mine is a general contactor. he recieved a call to go and repair a garage that was falling apart and needed to be repaired so the property could be sold....sound familiar https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif...OK no cars inside but.... since they were going to demo the falling down structure he needed to clean out all the junk inside and there was lots of it. seems the genteman who owned the garage collected dealer brochure's, and my buddy grabbed three milk crates full and dropped them off for me to have/sell/give away. After a quicl look thru heres what I found so far:

some 69's

Nice Find.
Can you relay what is on the back of each of the Chevrolet brochures you have?
It is important to some to know if they are originals,original revised,or reproductions actually put out later on by chevrolet.
Being an avid collector of these already,please note if they are the first printings,showing only something like "D-12345" revisions,denoted by "R-1",and "Roto" or "Litho" before "in U.S.A." on the lower back corner.

I used to collect these as kid in the mid to late sixties. I would write letters to GM, Ford and Chrysler each year asking them if they would mind sending me the new car sales brochures. They would always oblige send them down to me in New Zealand.
I still have a few left but most of them have gone, I wish I still had them all.
