Hi, I'm Stephen and I have been in business since 1975, specializing in art & antique related sales & services to regular dealer customers mainly. Also a leading hand engraver specialist in silver collectors items. In 1992 one of my designs included in the National Silver Collection, on display at No.10 Downing St; exhibited at the RCA; V&A; Goldsmiths Hall etc. ( A 2024 article online at "The Goldsmiths Company" website, & look under "silver plates", for the feature photo at top depicting the Houses of Parliament). I don't have a website as only a limited number of items are available occasionally. Used to have showroom/gallery for general public until 1990's when I became available to the trade only. Located at Cannock Chase Staffordshire since 1998. Previously at Penzance since 1975 with seafront gallery, & later in town center. Now partly retired but still greatly in demand by the traders.

A must have if owner or enthusiast of BL cars of the 1970s.
Got this book as an owner of a VP 1500, which receives a fair
mention in book. The author avoiding the common error of calling these "an Austin allegro Vanden Plas" as many do! Three main sections cover early (Mk1),mid, & final Mk3 models, some facts I was unaware of. Also mentioned with photo are VP1100/1300, A30, Maestro etc. This must be the most complete photo book on the allegro "family" of cars, (only other I have is Transport Source collected magazine reviews).
Interesting read for owner or anyone interested in BL cars in general,only two slight errors? found on pages 09 & 11 re; Princess keys? & bhp instead of hp? but expect someone may find more somewhere!
