The exhibition charts the rise of the T.T. from it's days as the British Trial for the fledging European motor racing scene, through to the Centenary event and John McGuinness's 130 mile per hour lap record.
The selection includes legendary T.T. heroes such as Stanley Woods, Geoff Duke, Giacomo Agostini, Mike Hailwood, Joey Dunlop, Steve Hislop and David Jefferies.....and many landmark achievements.
As well as featuring photographers from Getty Images, pictures from Dave Collister, Bill Snelling and Stephen Davison are also included.
The exhibition will be on show in the Isle of Man during T.T. 2008.
