The first Saab Owners Convention took place twenty-five years ago in Galena, Illinois during the month of September. According to Tom Donney of Donney Saab in Iowa, “this location was a relatively small tourist town alongside the Mississippi River where about 75 people attended”.

In addition to the Saab Owners Convention logo you see here, I have been able to provide some wonderful vintage photography for you also thanks to Tom Donney’s friend Joe Jerome who also made it to this event.

I am looking for more information on this event, so if you have any additional material, please e-mail me so that I can add it to this posting.

This convention is also listed on the Saab Convention Archive here on Saab History.
