    Fondato nel 1962 REGISTRO ITALIANO ALFA ROMEO (R.I.A.R.) International Club Il Presidente REGISTERED LETTER Arese, 26 October 2016 Newsletter no. 268 Dear Members, 2016 for RIAR under the flag of the Targa Florio – a year started with the event in Arese and ended with the trade fair in Padova. 20020 Arese (MI) Arese 20020 www.riar.it Our usual presence at the fair was in fact one more way of paying tribute to the - - history of the Targa Florio, which this year celebrated its 110th year of life. Alfa Romeo - second only to Porsche with its 11 victories - conquered as many as 10 absolute victories in this legendary Sicilian race, one of the most ancient and prestigious motor race in the world. But certainly, it was Alfa and the audacity of its drivers, which, particularly from the ‘20s to the ‘40s, created the extraordinary legend and @alfaromeo.com @alfaromeo.com enthusiasm around the Milanese brand. And the RIAR, as you may remind, set off Viale Luraghi, snc snc Luraghi, Viale – remembering its men and cars in March of this year at the Museum in Arese. The ACI (Automobile Club Italia) then invited four of our prestigious and exceptional vehicles to Palermo and Floriopoli in May for the Targa Speed event, together with the most registroalfa famous drivers of the past, “captained” by Jean Todt, President of FIA, to give life to the suggestive celebration of the one hundred years of Targa races. E.mail: - FCA Group Italy Italy FCAGroup – In late June, we were once again in Sicily with the rally “The Sicily of the Gattopardi on the Hundredth Anniversary of the Targa Florio”, and at last in Padova, once again invited by the ACI to the institutional prestige of its stand, where we exhibited two 44428183 important and very significant vehicles in the history of Alfa at the Targa: the RL TF from 1924, and the 33 TT 12 Fernet Branca, precisely the cars of the first and last victory of Alfa Romeo on the Madonie Mountains.

Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Archival Collection 26 Title: Karl E. Ludvigsen papers, 1905-2011. Creator: Ludvigsen, Karl E. Call Number: Archival Collection 26 Quantity: 931 cubic feet (514 flat archival boxes, 98 clamshell boxes, 29 filing cabinets, 18 record center cartons, 15 glass plate boxes, 8 oversize boxes). Abstract: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers 1905-2011 contain his extensive research files, photographs, and prints on a wide variety of automotive topics. The papers reflect the complexity and breadth of Ludvigsen’s work as an author, researcher, and consultant. Approximately 70,000 of his photographic negatives have been digitized and are available on the Revs Digital Library. Thousands of undigitized prints in several series are also available but the copyright of the prints is unclear for many of the images. Ludvigsen’s research files are divided into two series: Subjects and Marques, each focusing on technical aspects, and were clipped or copied from newspapers, trade publications, and manufacturer’s literature, but there are occasional blueprints and photographs. Some of the files include Ludvigsen’s consulting research and the records of his Ludvigsen Library. Scope and Content Note: The Karl E. Ludvigsen papers are organized into eight series. The series largely reflects Ludvigsen’s original filing structure for paper and photographic materials. Series 1. Subject Files [11 filing cabinets and 18 record center cartons] The Subject Files contain documents compiled by Ludvigsen on a wide variety of automotive topics, and are in general alphabetical order.
