Old Saab brochures are (dangerously) more than just automotive cultural assets

When I was in school in my hometown, before I went to boarding school, I had a friend who collected car brochures. He could tell me exactly which dealer had a chance of getting the latest prospectus and where children were being chased away.

Because children were not treated well there. Eventually we forgot the oath. My friend had an impressive collection, while brochures were never really my thing.
