This is a genuine ‘Race Week Programme’ given to the competitors & spectators attending the IOM TT in June 1982

It is an official ACU programme & guide personally autographed by the hand of Joey Dunlop, Peter Grove, Robert Hanna, Dave Ashton & Malcolm Lucas (See pictures)

It’s 34 pages long and lays out the schedule for each day’s events and provides all the competitors/entrants names, sponsors and machines being ridden

It’s in a traditional booklet style, 15cm x 21cm (ie A5) in size & has been preserved in amazing condition

It gives a wonderful, nostalgic insight to the game-changing race bikes during the 80’s, & the racers who went on to much bigger things in later years, and retirement of some of the others
