Default The tube full of ITR goodies I got nearly 15 yrs ago

I just wanted to share this since most ITR fans probably haven't seen it before. I received this about 6 mos after buying 98#460. Enjoy!

Cardboard tube is 25" long:


Key chain is "play worn" It came in the red "Macx" box. It is solid brass:


Brochure:



My wife and I met Pierre Kleinubing at Road Atlanta and he signed a World Challenge poster for us. Real nice guy. I think these posters are fairly hard to find now:

You're welcome and yes it's a spring loaded clip. I guess it's so you can clip to another ring.

Maybe it was just a '97-98 thing or limited supply.

Was just about to point that out myself : )

I also thought it was interesting that they refer to it as a "Type-R". I've always been uncertain as to what the proper/intended spelling was: Type-R or Type R? I've seen one way just as often as the other, just like "GS-R" and "GSR".

Those letters with the "Type R" letter head would be a fine piece to frame along with the original window sticker if you saved it. Thats what i did with mine, although my letter from Acura is not as fancy as yours...nor did they send me any poster or keyring. Awesome keepsakes bro.

Alright guys I'm gonna frame it. Maybe do a 3/4" deep shadow box and put the keyring and red box in there too. That would look good next to the RTR poster.
I don't think I have the window sticker. I'm pretty sure I mailed that to the guy in Hawaii that purchased the car.
