JAGUAR EPHEMERA COLLECTION GB3299-JEPH 1 Reference Code JAGUAR EPHEMERA COLLECTION GB3299-JEPH Reference code: GB3299-JEPH Title: Jaguar Ephemera Collection Name of creator: Jaguar Land Rover Ltd. Dates of creation of material: 1939-2011 Level of description: fonds Extent: 6 boxes Administrative history: The original company was established at Blackpool in Lancashire, on 4 September 1922, as a partnership between William Lyons (1901-1985, knighted 1956) and William Walmsley (1891-1960), trading as the Swallow Side Car Company. 1926, change of name to Swallow Side Car and Coach Building Company. 1928, moved from Blackpool to Foleshill, Coventry. Swallow Coachbuilding was registered as a limited company in 1930. SS Cars Limited was incorporated on 10 October 1933, with a public share issue in January 1934. Walmsley left the company at this point. The sidecar business was devolved to Swallow Sidecars (1935) Limited, which was sold to the Helliwell Group in December 1944. In 1939, Motor Panels (Coventry) Limited was bought by SS Cars Limited but was sold in 1943 to Rubery Owen. Jaguar Cars Limited was incorporated on 11 November 1937, and in April 1945 became the main operating company, with SS Cars Limited as a subsidiary. In 1952, the company moved to Browns Lane, Allesley, Coventry. In 1954, a subsidiary company was established in the USA, as the Jaguar Cars North American Corporation. The following companies were taken over by Jaguar Cars Limited: The Daimler Company in May 1960, including its subsidiaries such as Lanchester, Barker and Hooper, which were all bought from the BSA Group; Guy Motors Limited, Wolverhampton, in 1961; Coventry Climax Engines Limited, Coventry, in 1963; Henry Meadows Limited, Wolverhampton, in 1964. In July 1966, Jaguar Cars Limited and its subsidiary companies merged with the British Motor Corporation (BMC) to form a joint holding company, British Motor Holdings (BMH). In January 1968, BMH merged with Leyland to form British Leyland Motor Corporation which underwent several reorganisations and was de facto nationalised in 1975. Sir William Lyons had retired in May 1972. Jaguar Cars Limited had ceased to exist as an operating company by 1 January 1973 and then became part of British Leyland (UK) Limited, also known as BL UK Limited, later BL Cars Limited. Jaguar became part of BL’s Specialist Car Division which in 1978 was re-named Jaguar Rover Triumph. Coventry Climax, Guy and Henry Meadows were assigned to other divisions of the BL group. In 1983, Jaguar was a founder member of the Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust. In 1984, BL sold Jaguar (including Daimler) via a public share issue on the London Stock Exchange in a new company, Jaguar Cars plc, which had a subsidiary operating company, Jaguar Cars Limited, and a US subsidiary, Jaguar Cars Inc. Jaguar had an interest in two joint operations, Venture Pressings Limited together with GKN (1988- 1994), and Jaguar Sport together with Tom Walkinshaw (1988-c.1994), with a subsidiary company XJ220 Limited. 1 © Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust JAGUAR EPHEMERA COLLECTION GB3299-JEPH In December 1989, Jaguar Cars plc accepted an offer for its shares from the Ford Motor Company, and became a wholly owned subsidiary of Ford. Subsequently, following other acquisitions by Ford including Land Rover in 2000, from 2001 Jaguar, Land Rover, Aston Martin and Volvo were merged to form the Premier Automotive Group (PAG), which was a Ford subsidiary. In 2006, with the closure of the Browns Lane factory, the registered office of Jaguar Cars was moved to Whitley, Coventry. In 2008, Ford sold Jaguar and Land Rover to the Tata Group, which established a wholly-owned subsidiary under the name of Jaguar Land Rover. Scope and content: As part of their sales promotion and brand building activities, it is common for automotive companies to send Christmas cards, arrange corporate events (often including a meal), and also provide promotional stickers to attach to the rear screen of the company's products, for example to celebrate historical achievements. Clearly, material relating to such specifics only has a short life and therefore constitutes ephemera. The collection mainly comprises corporate Christmas cards from Jaguar and some of its subsidiaries, and others, invitations to corporate events, menus and seating plans, and Jaguar racing and brand related stickers. System of arrangement: Access conditions: Open Conditions governing reproduction: No restrictions on copying or quotation other than statutory regulations and preservation concerns Immediate source of acquisition: Predominantly provided by Jaguar Public Relations Department Archivist’s note: Fonds level description created by K Knight in 2017 2 © Jaguar Daimler Heritage Trust JAGUAR EPHEMERA COLLECTION GB3299-JEPH JEPH/001 Christmas Cards JEPH/001/001 Jaguar UK Corporate Christmas Cards JEPH/001/001/001 Jaguar Formula 1 Christmas Cards: Christmas cards with a picture c. 2000- 3 items of the cockpit area of a Jaguar Formula 1 car. 2004 JEPH/001/001/002 1951 Jaguar C-type Christmas Cards: Christmas cards featuring a c. 1951 3 items painting by Roy Nockolds of a Jaguar C-type at Le Mans in 1951, one of which is signed by Bob Knight, one time Chief Chassis Engineer for Jaguar.

  • 1:18 CMC Jaguar C-Type Review
    1:18 CMC Jaguar C-Type Review The year was 1935 when the Jaguar brand first leapt out of the factory gates. Founded in 1922 as the Swallow Sidecar Company by William Lyons and William Walmsley, both were motorcycle enthusiasts and the company manufactured motorcycle sidecars and automobile bodies. Walmsley was rather happy with the company’s modest success and saw little point in taking risks by expanding the firm. He chose to spend more and more time plus company money on making parts for his model railway instead. Lyons bought him out with a public stock offering and became the sole Managing Director in 1935. The company was then renamed to S.S. Cars Limited. After Walmsley had left, the first car to bear the Jaguar name was the SS Jaguar 2.5l Saloon released in September 1935. The 2.5l Saloon was one of the most distinctive and beautiful cars of the pre-war era, with its sleek, low-slung design. It needed a new name to reflect these qualities, one that summed up its feline grace and elegance with such a finely-tuned balance of power and agility. The big cat was chosen, and the SS Jaguar perfectly justified that analogy. A matching open-top two-seater called the SS Jaguar 100 (named 100 to represent the theoretical top speed of 100mph) with a 3.5 litre engine was also available. www.themodelcarcritic.com | 1 1:18 CMC Jaguar C-Type Review 1935 SS Jaguar 2.5l Saloon www.themodelcarcritic.com | 2 1:18 CMC Jaguar C-Type Review 1936 SS Jaguar 100 On 23rd March 1945, the shareholders took the initiative to rename the company to Jaguar Cars Limited due to the notoriety of the SS of Nazi Germany during the Second World War.

My life long love affair with the E-Type Jaguar began in 1961 when I was only twelve years old. My dad wasn’t a real car enthusiastic but when the E-type was released sometime in 1961 the whole family was transported in our FB Holden station wagon one Sunday morning to the Sydney CBD to view this new Jaguar. When we arrived the dealership was shut (car dealerships didn’t use to open on Sundays) but there was a crowd of several hundred people looking through the window of this new wonder car. I still recall this beautiful white E-Type looked like a car from another planet especially when you compared it to an MGA or an XK150, or, in fact, any other car available at the time. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I could ever afford one. Fast forward to 1976 and my dream became a reality.
