Eastern Counties Motor Club Historic Cine Archive: (042) Mini Scrap Book

Those of us of a certain age would as kids had a scrap book, purchased for a few pence from the corner shop. Made from coarse recycled grey paper with a distinctive smell (no not the shop, the book) these would enthusiastically be filled with cuttings of racing cars sourced from scrounged motoring magazines. Equally smelly was the Gloy Gum used to stick them it, this I seem to remember was made from rendered animal bones!

All the photos have a Mini connection although some are rather tenuous. Equally they all have a link to Norfolk or Suffolk or part of another county which is very close.

So here is my modern equivalent of that scrapbook, but with a bit of film and without that smell!

Many thanks to those who generously gave their permission for me to use either their film or photographs and apologies to those that I forgot to ask!

Please Note: No animals were hurt in this production!
