We have a second person who is willing to place a group order for people who 
missed out on the first order.   If you want to place an order please send an 
email directly to him.  His name is Drew and his e-mail is
viatlaw@aol.com

I have order checks for one poster each from 

Chris Stephenson
Rob Carpenter
Paul Rische
Stephen Jones
????Anyone else I missed????

Would you please tell me if you want me to send a check to Drew for your order, 
return your check or destroy it?

(Drew- I will return your check.  I posted this message to the Alpine 
discussion group and thank you for doing this.)

Here's the original posting.
I've received a letter from the ARCC (Association of Rootes Car Clubs)
advertising a poster representing a history of the Sunbeam marque. According
to the letter it represents every model of Sunbeam produced and includes a
proof of the poster.

It looks quite good, but it certainly doesn't represent every model. It's
patchy at best on pre-war stuff, but to represent every possible pre-war
variation would be almost impossible anyway. Size limitations would make
this difficult, even if illustrations of all these vehicles could be found.
It also omits the 1977-81 Talbot Sunbeam.

According to the letter, the poster is 60cm x 80cm, with each vehicle 4-5
inches long.

You can see it for yourself at http://www.auto-graphisme.com/

Apparently UK ARCC clubs will be selling them through their regalia
services. There is also an order form on the site, but no credit card
facility so you have to send a bank draft or money order. Price is FF100
(before postage) which is about US$14, AUD26 or GBP10 if I have calculated
correctly.
