Magazine Description from Ebay wrote:Motorcycle magazine dated 09 September 1954, average condition for age. The staples are rusting, and the pages are yellowing, there are some attractive articles that may be of use to someone. Also, it has a thorough round up of the latest sport results and forthcoming fixtures.




Ariels for '55 picutres and prices.

Latest Villiers 147cc engine.

AJS and Matchless modifications, prices and some pictures for '55.

A Continent Encircled - Ronald Westerland and his 14,500 mile trip around Australia.

A Diesel Norton ES2, built by A. Freeman-Saunders (actually Sanders) of Trembath Laboratories, Cornwall.

Mixed weather for Manx practising.

Occasional Comments.

Letters to the editor.

Looks like a have missed this one.
What I have is an article from a german magazine in 1955.

Original Image can be viewed on flickr. It's large enough to read it easily. German langage of course.
