Peter Brock collection added to charity auction for bushfire relief

A collection of Peter Brock memorabilia heads a list of motorsport items added to the Lloyds Auctions charity event for bushfire relief.

There are five unique Brock pieces as well as a copy of the 50th Anniversary HDT Archive Collection which is a 350 page 10kg coffee table book which is the ultimate collector’s item for HDT and automotive enthusiasts.

Formula 1 world champion Alan Jones has also donated a pair of signed race gloves and an official FIA shirt which he wore during his time as an FIA steward.

“Lloyds Auctions are doing a great job with the charity auction for bushfire relief and I encouraged everyone to get behind it by buying the items up for grabs or donating cool stuff, which can be turned into cash,” said Jones.

“The great thing is that 100 percent of everything raised goes straight to the organisations that need it.”

Other motorsport items include five individual copies of a 49cm x 68cm Dick Johnson/John Bowe Shell FAI Ford Falcon limited edition print.

The editions are 571-575 of 600 and come signed by both Johnson and Bowe and with a certificate of authenticity.
