JAPANESE RIDERS IN THE ISLE OF MAN

by Ralph Crellin

Published by Amulree Publications. 1st. 1995

Very good condition. The story of those who challenged the TT. In the 1950s and 1960s, the TT was the premier event in the Grand Prix road racing calendar, it therefore made sense for the major Japanese manufacturers to target the meeting as a significant milestone on the route to world championship honours. Red pictorial cardwraps. B/w photos. 80 pages.

Previous bookseller's price label to front cover. Contents clean.
