Hagerty has adopted publication of the Bolaffi catalogue, ensuring that the signature classic car ‘bible’ on trends and values will continue to benefit subscribers worldwide. The catalogue was first published in 1995 by Adolfo Orsi Jnr, grandson of ‘Mr Maserati’, Adolfo Orsi, and remains today the most comprehensive reference source on annual auction results. The inaugural Hagerty-published issue will include traditional sections on market analysis, the Top 100 and Top Ten listings and, demonstrating how Hagerty has increased the publication’s value still further, this will be the largest issue ever created, at 360 pages.Previously published by Bolaffi - the Italian house best known for their reference works on the art and postage stamp markets - the catalogue drew on the specialist market expertise provided by Orsi and his colleague, Raffaele Gazzi, of Historica Selecta. The latter will continue to provide data for the guide, which will now be titled ‘The Hagerty Classic Car Auctions Yearbook’.The first issue under Hagerty’s tutelage will be launched at the Royal Automobile Club, Pall Mall on the 29 October, the same day as the prestigious RM Auction, and prior to the similarly high-profile Bonhams Auction, on 31 October.
