Original Lesney Home Office Photos

Post by matchboxrw »

I recently with the help of a good friend of mine was able to pick up several hundred original Lesney home office photos from an ex-Lesney employee. I took time to scan a few to give you an idea of what to expect. There are more racing related photos in the lot than the other subjects, and probably date in the early 1970's. I will get the rest scanned as soon as I can. I still need to scan the entire 1966 and 1968 years scrap books that were owned by Fred Bronner. As I put these on, if you recognize any of the subjects, please post and let us know.

Nick,

I will be adding a lot more as soon as I have time to scan them! I hope we can figure out who some of the people are.

I'm glad you got hold of the photo's Steve and they weren't just thrown away or put in some collection that no one ever got to see.
Thank you so much for showing them.
I have one of the jackets in the last photo.

Cheers Steve
