History and Archives

I have a lots of magazines, books and memorabilia.
I pull them out of their piles, sniff the mildew and mold and read away. I think this may be the perfect place to share what I have with you. Its here and its all written. All I have to do is a little formatting.

The advertisement appeared on the back page of a Globe and Mail supplement entitled "Outdoors" and dated March 16th, 1965.
The Rootes Group in 1965 was targeting the women’s market with the Alpine.
It is also interesting to note that adjustable pedals were offered as an option.
These are ususlly considered to be a relatively recent development.
