I have started looking through my father's photo collection.
Are these of interest to other people and is this the correct place to post them?

I think they would be better placed in the Historic Forum.

I am still giggling about your comment on the Paddock dress code!
I would agree that the Porsche photo is brilliant.
Having looked at all Cub's photos I am astonished that such a wonderful collection of photos has remained unseen for so long.
A big thank you to Cub for sharing them with us and please, please, please keep them coming!

I don't claim to have the in depth information like some here, but these are firing all sorts of wonderful feelings. I only arrived in 1959, so they ain't memories!
Though I can claim a memory of the number 9 TR250 Ferrari. I have sat in that car, when Jim Allington owned it. It was definitely before he sold it, and had the replica built...
I would like to add my humble thanks for your sharing these precious memories on a PUBLIC forum. And to add that I am so jealous of your childhood touring Europe!
