• The Bill Pottinger Collection - Part 2



    Part 1 of the Bill Pottinger Collection was a huge hit! Bill's stunning photos of New Zealand motor racing during the late 1960s and early '70s are absolutely world-class, and its a privilege to be able to share them here.

    Bill initially sent me a cd containing 48 images, and the plan was to split these into two separate chapters, each containing a tidy 24 images each. However, Bill has since sent me regular emails, containing more images, and I was able to include several of these into Part 1. I'm really pleased to say that the current number now far exceeds 48 images, and should also exceed the original planned 2 chapters.

    Other than receiving his emails and enjoying the photos he has sent me, I've also enjoyed getting to know Bill himself, and was impressed to learn that he actually got an invite to head overseas, and become an international motorsport photographer, when he was just 16 years old. But, being so young, he turned down the offer, as he couldn't imagine leaving New Zealand at the time.

    So, anyway, this is Part 2 of the Bill Pottinger Collection. Enjoy!
