Who better than handsome John Weitz, himself a racing driver who is also a professional designer of chic sports fashions, could write a book on Sports Clothes for Your Sports.Car!

In his profusely illustrated volume on this glamorous subject—glamorous because the fashion story is told in action photos of the world's best-known and most dashing racing champions and their beautiful and chic lady-companions, Mr. Weitz covers such pertinent subjects as the incontestible relationship between Fashion and the sports car; the similarities between cars, clothes and manners of the 1930's and the 1920's; the distinction between touring, racing and spectator fashions for ladies and gentlemen; and the smart and correct top-to-toe apparel for each, down to the minutia of scarfs, gloves, sunglasses and sun lotions.

In one of his most important chapters, Mr. Weitz prescribes specifically what to wear and what to take to each of the major racing events, covering necessary data like the local weather, hotel accommodations, and surrounding social activities, in addition to making complete and specific wardrobe recommendations for men and women.

The book closes with a resource list naming stores where racing clothes and accessories are obtainable, and gives the formula for making them flame resistant.
