not sure where to start i have inherited a small collection of automotive photographs and storing them is a bit of a problem what i was enquiring about is are there any known collectors or do they have any value?
the photographs have all been taken by my dad from around 1954 up until he passed away in 2013
the photo's cover motorsport events, car shows, truck shows, tractor shows, and anything that he spotted whilst out and about driving around basicly (he was a hgv driver) anything motorized and unusual etc he would take a photo of it then get it printed and write on the back the date and location the photo was taken and the subject of the photo, sometimes including how many of that vehicle or model was produced, i am not entirly sure how many boxes and albums i have in total.
now the daunting part it isnt really possible to count how many photo's there are in total. i remember my dad trying about 17 years ago and he got upto 20,000+ photographs then abandoned it.
the vehicles in the photographs date from late 1800's upto 2013 models all off the photographs have been taken within the uk
