BUG EYE SPRITE, One of a kind print, Signed by the photographer

The race car, a BUG EYE SPRITE, is a print, signed by the photographer (John Loftus).
A-H Sprite Magazine used the same image on the 50th Year Anniversary Jubilee Celebration issue.


I received it from the photographer in exchange for a car part.
The title of the print, I believe is 'the #59 airport racer'.
It is not available anywhere, at any price.
I have been trying to find one for sale for ten years.

This extremely high quality print is MINT, and has not been exposed to light,
rolled, folded or even removed from it's plastic sleeve.
You can see the reflection from the plastic on the image.
It has only been removed from the mailing package it came in for this pic.
Since I don't own a sprite and wall space is non existent I can't display it.
It should go to a good home, but I need to recover some of my cost.
Social Security is my only income and is not enough to live on.

During the time I was restoring my Jaguar XJS I collected many other automotive related literature.
Some of the owners manuals titles I have are listed below.
Austin, Austin Seven & Morris Mini-Minor
1951-62 Austin & 1957-67 Farina
1962-69 Austin, Morris, MG Riley & Wolseley
1963 Cadillac Owner's Manual
Lanchester Ten
MGA, MGB & Magnette
Morgan 1936-69
Morris Minor 1952 on
Nisan Maxima 1991 Owner's Manual
Opal Rekord
Rover
Standard
Toyota Pickup 1977 Owner's Manual
Triumph TR 1952-62
Vauxhall Victor 1600, 2000 (1967-72)
2003 Jaguar Concept Eight (Media ONLY, Very Rare)
1994 Jaguar XJS Sales Brochure MINT
Various Jaguar books and magazines
This is not a complete list.
More to follow or ask me if I have it.
Since I don't have any pics stored on this computer, I'll need to send new pics from my phone.
Once I figure out how to transfer files I'll get some of them here.
Please text me during the hours of 9AM and 5PM to 650-455-1110.
Thanks,
Steve
