1968 Dulux Six Day race jersey.

After much searching I have just

acquired this quite rare 1968 Dulux

Six day Cycle race jersey, 

made by New Zealand's

main cycling clothing manufacturer

at the time Vel-Sport.

This was the first year that the race, in it's eighth

year, had it's own jeresy, and the only year that

had the year on the jeresy.

Programme for 1968.
