In the SAAC 2020 annual magazine, there's a wonderful article on Leo Beebe. the article begins on page 46and runs through page 54. Thanks Rick Kopec for this interesting historical background and interview with Mr. Beebe.
On page 54 at the bottom right of the page, there's a photo of Beebe along with Ray Geddes and Carroll Shelby. In Beebe's left hand, he's holding a couple copies of something that appears to be titled GT-350 with the CS logo on top border.
Can any of you "Literature Collectors" identify what Leo's holding. Thanks, Denny

Most likely a 65 or 66 GT350 press kit.
The photo is from the June 1965 LAX Open House, Ford Executives visit.
The caption of that photo from another SAAC publication notes he was holding Press Kits.

Thanks for the replies, I appreciate it. Sorry the photo was turned the wrong way, I tried several times to reload it but got the same result each time. Press Kit it is!

Here it is rotated...
the story on Beebe originally ran in
The Shelby American #43
Thanks J. D.
He has two in his hand.
