AA European route guides, late 60?s / early 70?s
Posted: Fri Dec 21, 2018 5:17 pm
I know this only has a somewhat tenuous link to topics Lotus but at least it?s roughly the right era. Does anyone remember the European touring route books that the AA used to produce from about ?68 onwards? They were roughly A5 spiral bound publications, a bit like reporters notebooks, and gave detailed route information for France, Spain + a few other countries. I had a set of them for years but they must have succumbed to a house move or two.
The reason I?m asking is because I?m trying to find some for a book project either involving the Elan or a suitable two wheeler that I?m planning for the summer of 2020, and despite a year or two of looking both online and in any old book shops I come across nothing has turned up. I asked the AA last year but they don?t even have reference copies.
Any hiding in lofts that I could look at or any suggestions about where else might have them would be gratefully received. I just hope that any that do turn up have not inflated beyond financial reach. They were free back in the day - to begin with at least.
