A Sydney publishing company by the above name produced a number of motor car and motor cycle books in the 1970's. Of interest to us is "Servicing the British Leyland Mini and Moke" (January 1976) and "Servicing Britich Leyland Fuel Systems" (August 1975). Both these publications have a note at the front that says: "Published by arrangement with and special thanks to BLMC". The Mini and Moke one also has a copyright logo next to Leyland Motor Corporation of Australia, and appears to be an exact copy of the Leyland dark blue covered workshop manual.
Does anyone know anything about the relationship between this company and Leyland? Were they just another organisation like Haynes who published documents under some sort of licence from the vehicle manufacturer, or were they closer than that?
According to ASIC they were first registered in March 1975 and de-registered in October 1995.
