Motor Sport: Lotus Covers

As a UK monthly publication which was started as the Brooklands Gazette in 1924, Motor Sport has featured Lotus on the front cover many times. The first issue to feature a Lotus on the cover that we could find in the archives was the July 1957 issue, which shows Colin Chapman in his Lotus Eleven battling with the similar Climax-powered car of Keith Hall.

The 60 issues we show here are all the Motor Sport issues that feature Lotus on the cover that we have in the Auto-Archives library. Unless we have missed one!

The Auto-Archives magazine collections are supported and sponsored by hobbyDB the world’s fastest growing collectibles database.
