Bob,
Although it is in very poor condition, I beleive that I have an orignal
owner's handbook that came with my 1970 TR6, which I purchased last
year. It does include information on the locking ignition switch under
the steering column.
The cover reads
Triumph
TR6 (badge)
Owner's Handbook
Issued by
STANDARD-TRIUMPH SALES, LTD

As you mentioned in your post, no dates are listed. The back page says
printed in England by Warwick Prinitng Co., Ltd., Warwick. I may be
missing the semi hard cover, so there is no mention on the cover as to
the handbook being for North America.
Hope this helps. If you need any addtional information from the
handbook please let me know.
