Bryn launches Autocourse digital archive

Many members will know of Icon Publishing, the company owned by Guild member Bryn Williams and publisher of the renowned Autocourse and Motocourse year books. 

Autocourse first published in 1950, the first year of the Formula One World Championship, and like F1 is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year.

To mark the anniversary the Icon team have created the Autocourse Archive, making the year books available digitally – so far 60% of the archive has been scanned and Bryn tells us that more editions are being added all of the time.

Members who are interested can download a free sample here and if they wish to sign up will receive a 50% discount on the annual subscription of £49.99 – simply enter the code GOMW50 on the sign-up page.

News Briefs editor Andrew Charman has tried out the digital archive and he’s very impressed – not only because reading the most detailed reports of the older races is fascinating, but because it will be a huge help to his ‘Wall of Formula One’ project in Cloverlands Model Car Museum!
