I have written a book about the Gold Cup meetings 1954 to 1974, the Mid-Cheshire years, and whilst I have done quite well getting new unseen photos for every year I am still missing material for 22nd Sept 1956, 5th October 1957 (which was a shared Bike meeting with Chester MC), 20th September 1958 (which was the International Sports Car Meeting for the Lookers Cup), 21st August 1971 and 29th May 1972, also the F2 meeting which Mid-Cheshire had scheduled as the Gold Cup for 16th Sep 1972
Does anyone know of anyone who may have photos of these meetings.
I am looking for entries in the Gold Cup and especially anything from the support races. Also paddock shots with pictures of drivers and officials, especially the Mid-Chesh guys like Peter Crummack, Ron Moore, John Elison, John Ritson, Dr Stan Foulds, etc etc.

Photo quality is not necessarily important as many of us had very primitive cameras and that fact that ANY of the photos still exist is a minor miracle. Hopefully I've written a history book and I would like to have something from every year.

Mike, if you haven't already found him, John Ross might be worth asking, via
