Ogle history donated

I've received some wonderful donations in the past, but the one handed over in person by Chris Gow last week is of another level. Multiple Ogle owner and marque guru Gow kindly donated a map with brochures, press pictures, press cuttings and clippings plus much more interesting stuff. A number of the cuttings were assembled by clipping agencies and press cutting services at the time for David Ogle Associates Ltd. and come from a wide range of newspapers and magazines both from the UK as well as abroad. 

There are also copies from the pages of David Ogle's sketchbook with early drawings of the Ogle Mini, which give a lovely insight into the earliest stages of the car's development. This is just the thing for further investigations into all things Ogle. Thank you very much Chris!
