It's a scan from the 1982 Haynes pubished "Ride it! BMX, The complete Book of Bicycle Motocross" written by Don Smith. A man with a very sexy pudding basin. It's a classic very old school book, pride of place on my bedroom bookshelf! 8)

Sure does bring back the memories that one rombloke, dug it out of the loft a while back while moving house, there was 3 binliners full of books and mags, the wife wanted me to bin the lot and i thought about it for about 2 minutes........WHATEVER...i had not clung onto this lot for the past 20 odd years to have a beatch give me attitude over it, needless to say its priceless  :)

Wish id kept my gen 1 though  :'(
