SECTION A
BROCHURES (*all estimates in Pounds Sterling)
Please note that the condition as described for brochures is relative. Thus, a "Fine" 1936 brochure is Fine relative to other mid-1930s brochures. A "Fine" 1997 brochure is Fine relative to other late 1990s brochures. Consequently, a "Fine" 1997 brochure will inevitably be in better condition than a "Fine" 1936 brochure.
Dimensions are shown in inches. First figure is the width; second is the height.
To refresh your memory, references such as JC/1 10 are to page 1 10 in my book "A Complete Guide to Jaguar Collectibles". On that page, you will find a full colour photo of an identical or similar item.

Copies
Repros, reprints, forgeries or fakes, call them what you will. They are out there and can fool the unwary collector. This is especially so when there is no indication that the document is not original. It is worth serious collectors having copies of these in their collection for reference. Naturally, all the following have been stamped "Copy" on the back.
A/90 - Advance Particulars of the New Jaguar Type XK 100 and 120 Super Sports Models. 4 pp folder. An honest copy with reprint company name clearly shown on back "Automobile Literature International." VG.
