Story and photos by Jeff Allison
The Editor and Jeff Allison thought it might be a nice idea to publish a few of those old racing photos that often collect in shoe boxes. Jeff had a bundle, as he began taking racing and pit photos at the age of 17 in 1959. So here are a few of his, and perhaps our readers might want to contribute some of their old photos, and memories in future editions of VeloceToday.
Apparently I’m the first volunteer, so here goes. I’m not a photographer par excellence like Jesse Alexander, Geoff Goddard or Louis Klemantaski. I was not Bob Jackson, Allen Kuhn or others seen in Veloce Today articles either. I began as a 17-year old over-the-top fan of motor racing, who happened to have a camera – “Behind the Fences”.
