1971-
This is the "Love Story" brochure, it is the Prestige brochure for the 1971 911 line. It is identical to a 1970 brochure save for on the specifications page it says 1971 instead of 1970. It measures app 9 1/2 x 12", and is 19 pages not including the covers. The first page shows Dr. Porsche standing in front of a 917, next page is entitled, “Some people race their cars after they build them. We race them before”, and talks about the Porsche family and their involvement in racing. The next two pages show the five 908’s that placed first through fifth in the 1000 kilometer Nuerburgring manufacturers championship race, talks about that and other race victories.
The next page shows a half page photo of a 911 in a Rally race, and a half page photo of a 911 on the street. Then there is, “The car that comes through over 1000 races and rallies every year should make it from stop sign to stop sign. The Porsche 911 is built to do both”. Accompanying text describes a lot of the features of the cars. The following two pages are entitled, “Racing is only one of the things that make a Porsche a Porsche”, has one full page and seven smaller photos of the cars being built. Text describes each part of the operation.
Next up is, “The end of the Porsche assembly line is 25 miles long”, has a two page wide photo of several cars on their test track, one page wide photo of several cars getting ready to go. Text describes the road testing. Then comes, “No matter which Porsche you get it’s got its own story”, a two page wide photo of four of this year’s models sitting on a track, and text describing some of the features and performance data for the 911T, 911E, 911S and Targa. The next two pages are a cutaway illustration of a coupe, entitle, “No matter what Porsche you get, you get this, too”, and there are 13 features highlighted, with directional lines to them.
Two pages devoted to, “This is what it looks like from the inside”, with a page and a half wide photo of the interior as viewed from the passenger side, three smaller photos of the dash, door and front seats. The final two pages are devoted to technical specifications for all the cars. They are entitled, “The man who said specifications were dull never saw these”.
This one I would call very good, it looks like at one time it got some drops of water on the cover which were wiped off real quick, I've done that and it leaves a spot. It's not bad, but if you look for them you'll find them. You kind of have to look at an angle, I can't see it in the scan. There is a small crease in the lower right corner, aside from that it's very solid, feels and looks good. These brochures were stiff, and this one still is.
The 1972 air conditioning brochure says it's for 1972 and 1973 model 911, 914 and Audi 100's, eight pages including the covers. It has one page talking about how well it works, then a page each showing and describing it on the Audi, 914 and 911. It and the 1966, shown below, are as new.
