Continuing with another selection from Allan Schafer's literature collection, now in my custody....

I'm on a roll with Allan Schafers photos.... the letter from L.Pratt and the photograph are self explanetary.
The Williams Bros., picture is in Wentworth Avenue, Sydney, which recently was the "home" to many motorcycle businesses and there is still one left... Action Suzuki.
The picture is in 1923 and a notice on the shop window refers to a success by Douglas, locally during 1921, and another refers to the 1923 models. The line-up of Douglas motorcycles is an order of 15 for the Australian Gas Light Company Ltd.... presumably for their gas meter readers to ride...
