Vintage DECEMBER 1953 Issue of CYCLE MAGAZINE, in GOOD condition. Ligth wear on cover and binding, binding intact, back cover has tear at lower left corner, otherwise VERY GOOD, NO stuck or torn pages inside, just normal age-yellowing, no more than what you would expect after 62 years! This issue features a Road Test of the *mighty* FRANCIS BARNETT FALCON 64 200cc SCRAMBLER, a comprehensive review of the 1953 GP season with Geoff Duke winning the 500cc championship on the Gilera Four, photos and results from the Cactus Derby, a full Triumph 1954 model roll-out piece, highlights of new models from Zundapp, Francis-Barnett, Horex and James, a tech feature on "More Power for Your Two-Stroke", and much, much more... Also noteworthy is publisher Floyd Clymer's introduction of a new editor for CYCLE - Bob Schanz, who would later found and run Accessory Mart/DomiRacer. The combination of the historically interesting content and competition results from all around the world, plus the period ads from the likes of BSA, Mustang, Ariel, Norton, Flanders, Avon, BMW, Hepolite, Velocette, Harley Davidson, Berliner Motors (Ducati & Zundapp), Cushman, Jawa, Cezeta, Indian and Triumph provides an intriguing glimpse of a world that once was but is now gone forever... VERY COOL! Along with plenty of nostaligia value, old magazines like this are packed with tons of useful and relevant information for anyone who owns, rides or restores any motorcycle made in the 1950s, especially a Fannie B Scrambler as featured in the Road Test!
A VERY GOOD December 1953 issue of CYCLE magazine - PERFECT addition to your vintage motorcycle library!
