I know this post is a while ago, but if you're still looking I have three Alpha kart ads though these were made in Rosemead, CA. Here's one of the ads.

That is probably 1960. Here's a later ad that looks like it's probably from '61.

This may be as late as '62 because that looks like a Mac 20 on it.

Here's one from a '61 Karting Digest. I'd like to see one of those LH Macs!
