There is a big, splashy ad for SOS running in Classic & Sports Cars this
month. Looks like Microprose has an idea of their target market.

Exactly my point. Or to be perhaps a little more charitable, non-sim
racers with a sentimental attachment to these cars. I wonder if GPL was
ever advertised in such a magazine? Captive audience, I would say.

Yes.... GPL was advertised in classical car magazines in both Europe and the
U.S
I've seen the "..In 1968 they changed the rules of formula 1..." ad. in both
Vintage Motorsports and Classic and Sportscar.

Edwin, I heard Kaemmer talking about this advert in an online
gameshow. I'd love to see this advert. Is it possibly for you to scan
this advert and put it on your site? Or someone else perhaps?
I also read about an advert in which Graham Hill tells Damon that he
should wait some years before he can race too.
And yes, I'd like to have that one as well :)
