Thinking of Classic Motoring Photographers

[hoffy]

Howdy,

If you were to talk Classic Motoring Photographers (either static, advertising or Motor Sport), which names would spring to mind? And by Classic, I mean, those who would have done their work in the 50's, 60's and up to the 70's.

I am starting a small project and I am interested in researching some photographers from the era.

Cheers

Jesse is still active and has published books of his work.
