I totally agree. I used to get the TT Special from the Broadway paper shop (no longer there) before going into the Villa for the presentation. Like Tom, I have most editions back into the 60's. And there most certainly was a Manx GP series. A practice edition, then one for the Tuesday races, and another for Thursday's Senior race.

It contained all the practice reports, top six in each class, info on any incidents, Who's Who on the riders, full race reports lap-by-lap, with plenty of photos of anyone and everyone.

Loads of interesting little stories in the Fred's Jottings and ChaTTerbox features too. About any and every rider. Not like today, when you have to be a crony of the sports editor to get a mention at all.

Sadly missed. And I'd never part with my collection. But I'm open to offers for swaps though!!
