THE INSTRUCTION MANUAL FOR THE MG SERIES TC MIDGET. A softcover instruction manual, a tad worn and torn, with an added spice of grease from use. Normal wear, marks and tear apply consistent with use and age. One hundred and two pages all intact, with a pull-out chassis and lubrication chart/diagram, at the back of the manual. Loads of great diagrams, illustrations and informative text to support the diagrams etc. Original owners details on inside cover in pen and ink, and now crossed out. This well used and loved manual, still has plenty of useful life left, and its perfect for those classic motoring enthusiasts that love the older cars and their memorabilia.

2pp., 4to. Bifolium. Heavily-aged and worn. Addressed 'Dear Sir', and with facsimile of signature 'For the London Steam Omnibus Co. Ltd. | A. Flemg Nisbett | Secretary.' The circular begins with the reason for sending an advance copy of the prospectus. 'My object in giving you this early intimation is that you may, if you desire, secure beforehand a Founder's Share in the profits of the coming Steam Traffic upon the Roads - which Traffic appears likely to become one day as popular as Steam on Railways'. The circular continues: 'Parliament has now sanctioned this new system of locomotion and a faster and better Omnibus than the Horse Vehicles now runnign - working at far less cost - is now in the hands of this Company.' It continues by stressing the secure nature of 'the business of London Omnibuses', with reference to the 'present weekly returns'. A postscript deals with the details of subscription. In October 1899 the Company, having changed its name to the Motor Traction Company, commenced services between Kennington and Victoria, via Westminster; the following year the route changed to Oxford Circus to Kennington; and in December 1900 it was withdrawn.
