I have a collection of racing photos from 1952 to 1955 taken in Holland. Many of them are copyright John Schaepman. This is discussed on this page:

Arjan de Roos has kindly been trying to help me with getting permission to scan and post these photos. He understands that Schaepman moved to Australia circa 1958. I wondered if he continued to take racing photos there. Has anyone heard of Schaepman in Australia?

I don't know if it's the correct John Schaepman but he appears to have a long interest in cars.

Vince and I found this separate from each other. Maybe I still get an answer from the Gazette itself. But Vince contacted the son, who stated his family immigrated early fifties to Australia. Schaepman made pictures of racing*) in Holland roughly between 1948 and 1957.
