"Short Circuits" - Anonymous - 13-09-2003
That's the name of a book I could do with a look at, or could someone who has a copy get in touch?
It was written around 1951, by GS Davidson and Phil Heath and details the circuits and results for that year.
Much obliged, Jake

Interestingly there is a copy of this book for sale on a U.S website.
<A HREF="http://www.harrisvincentgallery.com">www.harrisvincentgallery.com</A> the asking price is $75, they also have a T.T. Silver Replica at $3,250 and some nice Vincent Motor Cycles.

Seems such a shame that Tommy Wood's replica should be on sale in the States at $3250, and a surprise that a book such as "Short Circuits" should be on sale at $75, but then everything is bigger in America, prices, pockets, ego's.
One wonders how dealers (vultures?) like that got these replicas anyway.
Thanks for the replies regarding the book by the way, Larry D is sorting me out again.
Where would I be without him?
(No replies to that hypothetical question please!)

Mmmmmmmm. Wonder how much these Silvers and Bronzes would fetch in Japan.
Always a thought if you get short of a few bob for dog and cat food or vets bills in your old age
Might even pay for a right stonking funeral and drinks all round at the TTRA and MGPRA dinners.
