50th Anniversary Celebration in USA

Thought you’d like to see that at least someone on this side of the Big Pond tried to celebrate the 50^th Magnette year by gathering every known, available Magnette within driving distance of the CT shoreline to the CT MG Club’s 17^th Annual British-by-the-Sea show at the Harkness Memorial State Park in Waterford, Connecticut on Sunday, June 6. We had three Magnettes show up (two from CT and one from NY), one short of the four needed to have our own judging class, but because the day was rainy, our Magnettes were the only “MG Saloons” entered. So we had that whole class to ourselves and everyone took home a trophy! I had a laminated poster with a brief history of the Magnette composed and displayed on an easel, and we had lots of nice comments from the several hundred visitors who came out despite the morning rain. Sorry the picture isn’t better, but had to grab it when it wasn’t raining. Left to right: Registry cars 13540, 21003 and 6567.
