Awesomeness . . . .

 

Does anyone have this book? How do you rate it? Is the price of 40Eur a lot?

Had that book and ended up selling it. A lot of specs wich I copied but not much historical data or photos.

 

The author of this book is an employee of the factory.

Marcel Massini

 

It is an official Ferrari publication. Two books with dust jacket in slipcase. Here's a link to one for sale at Ebay italy. When your book is complete (two books, slipcase and dustjackets...) Eu40,- is a steal.

For 40Eur, only second part 1977-2007, without packaging.

 

As an 'collector's item' the value is zero. Collector's prefer complete and (near) mint editions. But as for reference or reading copy you will certainly like it. Especially when 1977-2007 is your favorite period. The book is packed with info and pictures.

 

Thank you for the info. Photo of my book collection Image Unavailable, Please Login

NICE! Happy birthday! The Schumacher book. Do you have the Schedoni edition?

 

Not my birthday! Schumis birthday!

And no, umfortunately no Schedoni in my collection.

 

Very cool!

 

I picked up these two. Finally found the new Alfa Romeo GTAM 3 book Alleggerita for half price from some guy in Cali. The Pegaso Z102 book is limited to 500 copied and has race photos of most cars. If you like the great Pegaso Z102 this is a must have. Several photos of chassis #0142 before being shipped to it's last race.

Two great books! Alleggerita is also on my bookshelf for a long time now. Didn't know about this Pegaso book but i do like these cars. Few years back there was an impressive display on these cars at Retromobile, Paris. A picture from Retro and the latest books in my collection:

Two books from Palawan (which always means quality...) The Lancia book and the DB3S 'bible' ...
Also the book from the exposition in London, 'Ferrari under the skin' which shows great value for money.
Book can easily obtained from amazon.

Today the 2017 yearbook (nr. 37 TOFM) arrived together with (imho) the only real yearbook. The Racing Activities yearbook has become a serious large publication with 3 books in a slipcase. One book for the F1, one for Competition GT and another for all Corse Clienti events.

That's a lot of kit. Did you source locally?

 

Hi Rob, locally = Italy yes.

 

Anyone know a rough value of these? https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F302600049562

 

Paragraph 2 has a "But wait. there's more . . " feel to it!

May not ship to the USA it says. That's understandable. This is a TON of weight!

 

That Arabic #7 version I've never seen before!

 

Sgkman - Are you in the UK? If so, have you contacted the seller? Here in the USA, one could gather these up on ebay and from Ferrari dealers in about a month's time.

 

Hi there, yes I’m in the UK. Tempted to put in a bid or two. Just wondering what a collection like that would be worth?

 

Hi Hugo,
it does exist. I have it in my collection. This must be the 2009 yearbook I think.

Kind regards

Manfred / Mitorosso

For which years has the "Racing Activities Yearbook" been offered by the Ferrari parts department? Is there a Ferrari part number there for the 2017 70 Anniv set of the Racing Activities Yearbook? I know that the TOFM 37 has it's own part number.
Thank you.
