I agree with you. I have a small stash of about 15 Photo News mags from about 1961 to 1973 from various regions of N.Z and they are a wonderful social history of the "simpler times?" of the 60's and early 70's in N.Z. In particular they provide a fascinating pictorical insight into many aspects of motorsport in N.Z. in these regions including, club grass track racing, hillclimbs, early stock car racing, circuit racing, drag racing, motorcycle racing and power boat racing. They are real underated treasures, in the historical side of recording Kiwi's passion for motorsport and automobiles, plus many other aspects of the popular culture at the time.
