In memoriam Jacques Swaters.

This morning my father received the sad news that Jacques Swaters has passed away Friday 10/12/2010 in Brussels.
The death of Jacques does not only mean the end of a part of Ferrari history but it also means the loss of a good friend. My father visited Jacques many times in his Galleria in Brussels to learn more about literature, to swap items or just to have a chat about their collections. Jacques has always been an enormous support to the collection of my father. Not only helping him in finding material, but also in motivating him to keep on searching. Because this was one of the many things Jacques was good at, spreading the passion for Ferrari.
It was always fantastic to listen to the incredible stories of his life, he could entertain people for hours just by talking. 
Jacques, we will always remember you as a great person, but above all, as a very good friend!

Hello,

Welcome to my new website. As you can see, this site is meant for everyone with interest in collecting original Ferrari literature like brochures, press kits, postcards, yearbooks, manuals and so on.

My father has been a passionated collector for over 25 years now and has build up quite a big collection. Since one of his main goals is to have all the items in the best condition possible, a lot of items were (and are still being) improved. As you can imagine the amount of doubles is quite big.
Therefor I recently decided to take care of these doubles and with it, improve my fathers collection.
I came up with the idea of creating a website where I will display all the items that are tradeable for other items we are still looking for. So please take your time and have a look at my website.

As you may notice the site is still under construction. I will be putting up from time to time, so stay tuned for any new literature.

I hope you will enjoy your stay!
If you have any questions, feel free to contact me anytime.
