The 1988 Rolls Royce Enthusiasts’ Club Bulletin, a memento from the annual rally at Castle Ashby, speaks to a cultivated narrative of motoring heritage. Within its pages lies a trove of knowledge and camaraderie, from the General Secretary’s notes to the revered Sir Henry Royce Memorial Lecture, each segment a testament to the illustrious Rolls Royce legacy.

This bulletin, edited by Eric Barrass and crafted by Acanthus Press Limited, is more than a publication—it is a chronicle of the year’s most notable gatherings, technical insights, and introductions to new members. The cover image of Sam Macdonald Hall’s 1939 4 1/4 is a visual homage to the timeless elegance intrinsic to the Rolls Royce marque. For the enthusiast, it is not just a bulletin, but a piece of the club’s soul—a narrative of luxury, history, and the pursuit of automotive excellence.
