Vintage MOTORPHOTO
Summer 2002
Most of the photos in this catalog are single images only, meaning that I have only one of them and I do not own the negatives. I do not sell copy photos unless they are of a really rare subject and then this fact is mentioned in the description. Most photos by known photographers have the photographer's stamp on the reverse and many have writing on them in the form of a description and\or cropping notes. No claims are made for photo authorship unless I have conclusive proof, therefore many of the photos listed under ANONYMOUS could very well have been taken by well known photographers. It is probable that most photos were the only one, or one of few printed from the negative.
All photos are black and white unless "color" in mentioned. All photos are printed on fiber based paper unless RC to denote "resin coated" is in the description (see legend). None of the photos listed are mounted permanently (unless specifically noted) so you will be free to use or display them as you wish. These photos are being sold as collector's items, many may be copyrighted so you would reproduce them at your own risk. AUTOGRAPHED means that the person pictured has signed the photo or described article, SIGNED means signed by the photographer. To understand the dimensioning system PLEASE NOTE THELEGENDBELOW!!
LEGEND: ZZ= 12 x 16; XX=11 x 14; AA = 9.5 X 12; A = 8 X 10; B = 6.5 X 8.5; C = 5 X 7
RC =RESIN COATED PAPER PL = PRINTED LATER, ALL PHOTOS NOT MARKED PL ARE CONSIDERED VINTAGE.
E-Mail me and I will send scans of most anything in this catalog! By September I will have been in Europe four times in the preceding year and let me be the first to announce that the rest of the world has discovered vintage racing photography! Supply and demand are driving prices higher and higher but I have kept the prices stable in this catalog so let’s enjoy them while we can! There is some great new stuff in the EPHEMERA section and new photos throughout the catalog. Hope to see you at the races this summer!
TYLER ALEXANDER
Tyler was Bruce McLaren’s mechanic in the 60s, he left McLaren to become the crew chief for Newman-Haas both in Formula One and CART. He then returned to McLaren where he works today. Along the way he took some great photos. A very successful show of his work was at Long Beach in the early 90s. All of Tyler’s photos have been custom printed, toned and washed to archival standards.
