Massive collection of Alfa Romeo Literature - Once in a Lifetime Opportunity

This collection was gathered over a 30+ year period by a well known Alfa Romeo club president and major enthusiast.  This is almost certainly the largest Alfa factory literature collection in the US. 

I was only allowed to post 12 photos in this listing.  Here is a link to a full set of photos: https://flic.kr/s/aHskvQNfwP 

You are bidding for the entire collection and I will not break it up or sell pieces individually. 

I have owned this collection for a number of years now, but now really need the space.

The file cabinets are full of manuals and dealer brochures and other Alfa literature. There are stacks of owner's manuals, dealer parts books, technical manuals, special tool manuals, Alfa Corse race prep/competition manuals, buyer's guides, history books, art prints, Fusi book (Le Grandi Alfa Romeo), banners, posters, movies, microfilm & viewing equipment, and lots more. Also included are many examples of Alfa dealer promotional items as shown in the photo set. 

Most of the items are for 101 & 105 series cars (also 750, 2000, 2600, and Montreal) and later Alfetta, Milano, and 164. There are also bound photocopies of service manuals for many other earlier Alfa models.

I'm hoping to find a museum library or Alfa Club that will keep this collection intact, but the buyer can certainly choose to resell these items individually and the profit upside is great if the materials were marketed properly. 

There are hundreds of individual items, and it would take weeks to make an accurate inventory of everything. Please look at the photos carefully.

I can box everything up and load on pallets ready for transport if needed, but the buyer will need to arrange transportation (this will be heavy, so a pallet jack and truck with a liftgate will be needed). The 6 full size file cabinets are full and I will include these with the literature in them for easier shipping.

This collection is listed elsewhere and subject to prior sale.  

Please ask questions and I will answer to the best of my ability- 805-331-1001 Mark

Terms:  
$500 deposit due within 24 hours, and remainder within 5 days.  I can hold the collection while transportation is arranged, but pickup must take place within 2 weeks or a $50/week fee will apply.  Please inspect in person or ask questions before placing a bid.  I can take more detailed photos of anything needed - just ask.  This is an As-Is sale.   

Thanks for looking!

2015 Ford Expedition: First look

Wed, 19 Feb 2014

Meet the 2015 Ford Expedition, unveiled today at the Dallas auto show. Besides the freshened look, the big news is that Ford's full-size SUV now comes only with the F Series' 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 engine like its recently announced Lincoln Navigator sibling. At about 370 hp and 430 lb-ft of torque, the twin-turbo V6 delivers more power than Ford's ancient 5.4-liter V8 (310 hp, 365 lb ft).

Infiniti Essence unveiled at the Geneva motor show 2009

Tue, 03 Mar 2009

By Ben Pulman First Official Pictures 03 March 2009 11:38 This is the Infiniti Essence, a petrol-electric rear-wheel-drive coupe with 592bhp. It’s a concept, built to celebrate Infiniti’s 20th anniversary, but also to preview the company’s future design themes and environmentally friendly technologies, both of which will be essential if the badge is to conquer the UK market later this year. It’s not, but the petrol-electric drivetrain is a glimpse of Infiniti’s future power units.
