Hello All,
Probably not all of you know that our expert on Belgian armor, Georges Mazy (nick: gemsco) passed away in 2013 or 2014 (sorry, not sure about that). So we'll probably never read his book on Belgian armored cars in WW1 which he's been writing. What remains is Georges' articles. I know he published in "Tank Museum News" and in "Militaria Belgica" or "Militaria Belgica Info" (yes, these are two different magazines). I'm looking for his articles on Belgian armored cars:
Tank Museum News no 30 (Minerva)
Tank Museum News no 32 (SAVA)
Tank Museum News 63 and 64 (Belgian armored cars in Russia)
I also know about his 5-page article on SAVA from 2011, but I'm not sure where it was published.
Maybe there were more Georges' articles about Belgian armored cars. The problem is that magazines mentioned above are very hard to find and I don't have any of them. Their distribution is probably very limited any they are not sold on the Internet, except rare situations when second-hand copies appear.
In short - I'm looking for scans or photos of any and all of Georges' articles on WW1 Belgian armored cars. Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Albert
I met Georges Mazy once... I did know he had passed. A very sad loss.
I have some of these magazines as for some years I corresponded with Raymond Surlemont and he used to send me them. Whether I have the ones you need I don't know. I'll have a dig.
If you go to the Museum they sometimes have odd back issues in the shop.
Thank you very much for the reply and your willingness to help. If you have any of above mentioned articles, please let me know here or via private message and I'll send you my e-mail address. I hope I can help you somehow in return.
