What is Christian's Archive?

Although thousands of hours have been spent buying, borrowing and scanning information, the 'archive' is a freely SHARED resource that is for NON COMMERCIAL USE.  We all have contributed to the Archive in order to get it to the fantastic standard that it is at today.  However, there are still a few items missing. If you have ANYTHING that looks like it is missing from the electronic files please email Christian with a clean scanned copy and it will be incorporated in the next update.

Christian Gyde is always looking for clean original copies of AJS and Matchless sales literature, magazine articles, instruction books, and parts manuals.  Christian can be contacted at c_gyde@yahoo.dkNO-SPAM  (remove the NO SPAM part).  Hard copies can be sent, copied by Christian, and will be promptly returned if required - contact Christian directly for his address.
