karen sprouse Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Hello My late Father has a large collection of various Triumph related printed material consisting of parts catalogues, special service tools and repair operation manuals, including workshop manuals. There is also a folder of service news letters, a training manual for vehicle trades apprentice stage 1 and a service division policies and procedures manual...... There are quite a number in total so I was wondering if anyone was interested in purchasing these as either a job lot or individual items. I can send photographs if that is helpful at this stage. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted August 9, 2023 Report Share Posted August 9, 2023 Karen, It would be most public spirited of you (or Club spirited anyway!) if you felt able to ask the TSSC to look over these documents before selling them. And if there were any that they do not have copies of, to donate them to the Club. Their collection is large and there will be many that they would not want to have, leaving them for you to sell, while ensuring that as many people as possible have access to the rare ones. Best wishes, John 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steveweblin Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) I would be happy to scan some of the material if that's useful. I host a lot of manuals on my website. http://vitessesteve.co.uk/ I already have many parts lists and repair manuals. What else have you got? Photos would help identify what is in the collection.

JohnD Posted August 13, 2023 Report Share Posted August 13, 2023 Four days later, and no response. You OK, Karen? The papers were your late father's. Was his death recent? Want to talk? Send a Personal Message (click on the name and then on 'Message') to do so in confidence. JOhn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karen sprouse Posted August 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2023 Hello, I'm so sorry, I had no idea that I had received so many responses - no notifications received. I'm happy for those interested to come and have a look at the books. And John I think it was, thank you for your kind words. Also I will bear in mind the option to donate to our local Transport museum. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

karen sprouse Posted August 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2023 Last few. Someone has shown an interest in the Triumph 2000 literature so they have first refusal. Thanks for looking at Dad's collection. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
