Consecutive issues of The Motor Cycle magazine from the early part of 1947 bound into a single volume. Half bound in red waxed cloth over marbled paper boards with gilt titles on spine. Marbled edges. 4to. . Boards just a little rubbed and rounded on corners and spine ends front joint a little rubbed. Text block edges a little dust darkened. Internally the pages show some mild toning else neat, clean and tight. The Motor Cycle was a weekly magazine, commonly known as The Blue ‘Un. Established in 1903, Motor Cycle was the first British magazine devoted to motor cycles and motorcycling. Known for its focus on road tests and features on reader’s bikes, it also covered motor cycling news and key issues and developments. Contributors often signed off with pseudonyms: that of the editor, Arthur Bourne was Torrens, as well as the famous Ixion (Canon B Davis). These issues from just after the second world war provide a fascinating insight into the world of motorcycling in the late 1940s.
