    Googling, Sue and Chris Ellis, daughter and son-in-law of the late Russell Brockbank apparently administer the Russell Brockbank Partnership. They were married in 1965, so it might be their children.

    Brockbank did the famous car cartoons up to the 70s.

    Has anyone bought anything direct from the family? Looking for a contact. Apparently they attend British swap meets, events and autojumbles.

    Thanks.

    I'm a Brockbank fan too. If you ever find a direct contact, I would certainly like to know!

    Good suggestions, though I have never had much success on Autosport forum. The GP Library (Paul Vestey and Doug Nye) might be riding to our rescue. Will let you all know. Thanks a lot.

    Update January 27: contact made and very nice reply, so all OK. If anyone needs the email, do PM me. I can also recommend Tony Clark at http://www.motoringart.info/index.html who was very helpful and clearly has some nice things.

    PM sent. I had brain fade here... too much to do. I should have of course thought of Tony Clark...he writrs for our magazine! (AutoMobilia) He is extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. You can get lost for hours looking at all the art and info on his web site.

    I am trying to locate Roger Brockbank, Sue's brother. We worked together in the late 60's and I would be grateful of any information about him.
    Thanks Ron Major
