Lot 3 - History of the A8
 

Coffee table edition. I suspect this book has never been read but the dust cover has some minor blemishes so I will describe this as in very good condition. It has been signed inside the cover but I don't know who by, see the photo.

Any idea whose autographs they are?
(I have 5 in my copy, now all identified with help from people here)

£5

I thought that the first signature could be "Jackie Stewart" but it doesnt match very well to examples online.... Did JS have any connection with Audi?

£10 from me...

Where's that thread? We could try similar sources again. Do either of these autographs match yours?

I have tried searching for a number of variations on the possible names looking at Audi race teams (mid 90s) or similar connections but to no avail.

First (top)signature:
First Name: Jake/Jackie/John
Second Name: Stewart/Stevens/Steinway (theres a musical thread here!)/Stevenson

Second Signature:
First Name: Noel/Roelf
Second Name: Allen/Allan/Alain/Allaird

The bottom one matches HPs copy and was identified by Richard (PsYcHe) some time ago:

"It's Richard Attwood...

Wee story with him.. First driver to win Le Mans for Porsche, owns an A8 (or at least did about 2 years ago). He was my instructor on a Porsche day at Silverstone."

Does this guy have an Audi RS 2 brochure? I really want one, I found one on eBay but it is hard to justify at £40, if it is for a good cause, that makes it easier for me to justify.
