Description from the seller

Triumph Trophy 500 – Original 1970 Dealer Sales Leaflet (Double-Sided, Okinawa PX Issue)

This is an original double-sided Triumph dealer sales leaflet produced for the 1970 Triumph Trophy 500 (TR5T).

It is a single sheet printed on both sides, exactly as originally supplied to Triumph dealers and U.S. military PX outlets.

One side features “The Triumph ’70 – A Breed Apart”, the official 1970 Triumph dealer front design.
The reverse side carries the Pan Pacific Company imprint, confirming this leaflet was issued for the exclusive Okinawa distributor serving U.S. military sales (Kadena Air Base area).

This Okinawa PX distribution route is historically significant, as many British motorcycles sold through these channels were later shipped to the United States by American servicemen. Leaflets from this network are highly sought after by collectors of Triumph, British scramblers, and U.S. military motorcycle history.

The Triumph Trophy 500 (TR5T) is one of Triumph’s most iconic models, associated with the golden era of British scramblers, ISDT competition, and the Steve McQueen / Bud Ekins generation. Original factory literature for this model is considerably rarer than for Bonneville or TR6 models.

Condition:
The sheet remains flat and clean with strong color and clear print.
No tears or major damage are visible. Minor age-related handling marks may be present, consistent with original dealer literature.

This is not a reproduction. It is a genuine Triumph factory-printed promotional leaflet from 1970.

-Storage Conditions
This item has been stored in a smoke-free, pet-free, and climate-controlled environment, away from direct sunlight.
Please note that minor manufacturing imperfections may exist. Kindly take this into consideration before placing your bid.
