Vintage Stuff: MG

About Vintage Stuff

The aim of Vintage Stuff is to display some of the ephemera that I have collected, often inadvertently, over the years. I am now deliberately seeking out interesting old adverts, screen shots, leaflets, obscure record covers, picture postcards and illustrations; anything that catches my eye, in fact. They will be mainly, but not exclusively of UK origin (so many vintage blogs appear to be American) and almost always a scan from something that I actually have in my collection, rather than off the net. If you do re-blog, please acknowledge the source. Further stuff, mainly photographs, can be found on my Flickr pages, via the Benny Hill record cover.

Here comes spring again

A sure sign that winter is on it's way out is the appearance on our roads of classic cars, blinking in the sunlight after a period of hibernation tucked up in a garage somewhere. This 1973 MG Sprite has suddenly turned up in a road near to us, usually boxed in by other vehicles, but a clear shot was possible last Saturday. It has a round rear wheel arch and chrome bumpers, only available during 1972/73 and apparently is a desirable combination amongst enthusiasts. Roll on the rally season!
