VW Beetle Gold Portfolio 1935-1967
Description

First of two books coverering the Volkswagen Beetle (covers the period from 1968 to 1991). Readers mayalready know that Brooklands Books are an archive service for today's owners of the interesting cars of the past. These make available again magazine articles and other important material which was written about the cars when they were new, as well as later material which is now hard to come by.

The articles reproduced here tell the story the Beetle's development and its sales in the English-speaking countries during its first 20 or so years in production. This Gold Portfolio will prove enjoyable reading for anyone who likes, owns, or is merely interested in the early Beetles.
