I bought that magazine in 1968. In 2002 I took it to Tunica, Mississippi to a indoor AMA National on a hunch that Gary Nixon would be there and he was with the Monroney Racing team which sponsored Jake Johnson at the time. He signed the cover so now its special. The magazine reviews the 1967 Grand National racing season. And 1967 was the year that Gary Nixon and Triumph kicked Harley ass in short track, long track and road racing. "The Man to Beat" they called him and for good reason. He did it again in 1968 giving Triumph racing fans the best two years of their lives. Thanks for showing it guys.
