Subject: [CR]6 Day Madison 1925 Program On Amazon.com Auction

Raoul Delmare , Marysville , Kansas , here .

So , because of the several mentions on the C. R. List , I went looking to see what was available on Amazon.com ( U.S.A. site ) , in books , VHS video , or DVD , about , "Six Day Racing" .

Not much - actually nothing - no surprise .

Haven't tried the Amazon.com U.K. site .

But , I did find two fairly wonderful things :

1.) "Six Years After D-Day : Cycling Through Europe" by Marie Bennett Alsmeyer "In 1950 a young couple quit their jobs in Texas and went on a 1,200 mile bicycle tour through Europe: based on their notes and diary entries, this packs in details of post-war western Europe"

2.) An original 1925 program , for the 1925 World Championship 6 Day Races , held in Madison Square Garden , New York , New York , U.S.A .

Only one day of auction left .

No bids yet .

$ 80.00 opening bid .

Note - I'm buying a copy of the book . And somebody from the list needs to buy the original 1925 program , and either frame it ( archivally ) , or at least seal it away in a Zip-Lock bag with all the air sucked out of it !
