Mission & History

The Ferrari Market Letter was founded by Ferrari enthusiast and historian Gerald Roush. It is independent and not affiliated with any other commercial Ferrari venture or club. It is published approximately every two weeks but definitely 24 times a year. Publication began with the 3 January 1976 issue, making 2025 our 50th year of publication.

In 1997 a companion online edition, www.ferrarimarketletter.com, was introduced. The online edition contains all of the text material of the print edition and is updated when the print edition is published, i.e. approximately every two weeks but definitely 24 times a year. A "sneak peek"at the online edition can be found on the website.

From an original modest subscription list of 131, the FML has grown to have, print and online, nearly 5,000 subscribers worldwide. It is widely accepted as the bible on the Ferrari market as well as being highly respected for its informative articles and information.
