With a huge collection of historic motor racing images, magazines, books, race programs and memorabilia, Auto-Archives non-profit Automotive Library and Research Centre felt that the best way to share such an impressive array of motoring history was by highlighting a special group of Peter Darley images, and presenting them in a fabulous, large format book, titled ‘Pit & Paddock’.
With a Foreword written by Lord March, Pit & Paddock is a high-quality, 12x12inch large format, 256-page hardback book, featuring over 200 images from the Auto-Archives library. The Limited Edition of Pit & Paddock is presented in a blue cloth-covered slipcase with the P&P logo silver-foil embossed on the front and will be shipped in protective packaging to ensure safe delivery. Taken by Peter Darley in the 1960s and 70s, the evocative images will give the reader a behind the scenes look into the pit and paddock at ten historic European circuits. These unique never before seen images portray a world that is sadly long gone.
Publishers Edition
The Publishers Edition of Pit & Paddock is a true collectors item. This edition is limited to just 100 exclusive copies. Each book has a book plate in the front of the book signed and numbered by the author and photographer of the book Peter Darley as well as the Publisher William Taylor.
