1954 Vincent 998cc Series-C Black ShadowRegistration no. UPJ 745Frame no. RC12034/B Rear frame no. RC12034/BEngine no. F10/AB/1B/10,134 (see text) Crankcase Mating no. C38V/C38V•Factory stamped matching numbers•Fully documented ownership history•Single-family ownership since 1989•Engine rebuilt in 1994•Professionally re-commissioned for saleEver since the Series A Rapide's arrival in 1937, the Vincent v-twin has been synonymous with design innovation, engineering excellence and superlative high performance. The appeal of the Vincent, and the 120mph-plus Black Shadow in particular, lay in its ability to out-perform just about every other vehicle on the road, and in the early post-war years there was nothing to compare with it. This was a time when the average family saloon was barely capable of reaching 70mph, and not until the advent of Jaguar's XK120 was there a production sports car that could live with the thundering v-twins from Stevenage. Sold new by Millars Motors of Mitcham, Surrey, this magnificent and much travelled Black Shadow comes with its original and continuation logbooks tracing the machine's ownership history from new up to 1975 when it was registered to Piers Timothy Pearcey, while a (photocopy) V5 records Mr Pearcey as the owner immediately preceding the lady vendor's late husband, who acquired the Vincent in 1989. Offered from long-term single-family ownership, 'UPJ 745' comes with a substantial file of history including VOC correspondence confirming matching frame and engine numbers, and a bill relating to an engine rebuild by Bob Dunn carried out in 1994. The file also contains numerous other bills and a substantial quantity of tax discs and MoTs, the earliest of the latter dating back to 1967 (the last MoT expired in 2014). 'UPJ 745' also comes with a large album of photographs recording the owners' trip to New Zealand with their Black Shadow. Also included in the sale are various instruction manuals and marque-related books, and a copy of an article featuring the late owner's Vincents published in The Classic Motor Cycle's August 1991 edition. With its sale in mind, the Vincent was extensively re-commissioned in late 2021 by Classic Bike Workshop of Fleet Hampshire, whose detailed bill for £2,447 is on file. The vendor advises us that the Shadow is running well, its engine being described as mechanically healthy, quiet and smoke-free. Gear selection is said to be excellent, with the original clutch working well. The electrics were tested recently and are all in order. The only faults notified are a noisy alternator and a slight oil leak. All in all this is an exceptionally well documented and well cared for Black Shadow, benefiting from long-term enthusiast ownership and offered fresh from professional re-commissioning, ready to enjoy. It should be noted that other engines built at around the same time as this one also have a ',' stamped in the number, which according to the VOC looks like a quirk attributable to one of the fitters.

1954 Vincent 998cc Series-C Black ShadowRegistration no. UJO 680Frame no. RC12099B Rear frame no. R2145Engine no. F10AB/1B/10199 Crankcase mating no. C63V/C63V•Matching Upper Frame Member and engine•Single family ownership for the last 29 years•Engine rebuilt by Conway Motors in 2004•Last run in March 2022Ever since the Series A's arrival in 1937, the Vincent v-twin has been synonymous with design innovation, engineering excellence and superlative high performance. From Rollie Free's capture of the 'world's fastest production motorcycle' record in 1948 on a tuned Series-B Black Shadow to the final fully enclosed Black Knight and Black Prince, Philip Vincent's stress on appearance and performance is legendary. His machines bristled with innovative features, offering adjustment of brake pedal, footrests, seat height and gear-change lever. The finish was to a very high standard commensurate with the cost of the machine, which was virtually double that of any of its contemporaries.But above all else it was the v-twin's stupendous performance that captivated motorcyclists, whether they could afford one or not. The appeal of the Vincent, and the Black Shadow in particular, lay in its ability to out-perform just about every other vehicle on the road, and in the early post-war years there was nothing to compare with it. This was a time when the average family sedan was barely capable of reaching 70mph, and not until the advent of Jaguar's XK120 was there a production sports car that could live with the thundering v-twins from Stevenage. With a top speed approaching 120mph and bettering it in the Black Shadow's case, the Vincent v-twin was quite simply the fastest road vehicle of its day. This Vincent Black Shadow was part of the estate of the vendor's late father, who had purchased it in 1993 (receipt on file). The Shadow was his pride and joy for more than 30 years and during most of that time he was an active member of the Vincent Owners' Club. In 2004 the engine was rebuilt by marque specialists Conway Motors. Conway's detailed invoices are on file and the accompanying folder also contains numerous other bills; a quantity of MoTs (most recent expired 2013); instruction books; spare parts list; assorted technical literature; and old/current V5Cs. The Vincent Owners Club has confirmed that the UFM (RC12099B) and engine (F10AB/1B/10199) is a series-C Black Shadow manufactured in early 1954. 'UJO 680' is an Oxfordshire registration, suggesting that it might have been despatched to Kings of Oxford. (It should be noted that the rear frame is from a 1948 Series-B Rapide.) Last run in March 2022. Offered with a selection of spares including rear luggage rack and tool tray.

Originally on loan to Phil Read, The Super Bike Magazine Test Bike, and one of only two Boxers sold 1977 MV Agusta 832cc BoxerRegistration no. SAN 524SFrame no. MV750*2210357Engine no. 221-0508•Present ownership since 2009•Museum stored in a temperature controlled environment•Last run in December 2021•11,534 miles from new'Only two motorcycles were imported into Britain and sold as 'Boxers' before car manufacturer Ferrari forced importers Agrati to change the name back to Monza.' – Mick Walker, MV Agusta Fours - The Complete Story. The ultra-rare MV Agusta Boxer (Monza) offered here represents the culmination of the legendary Italian factory's range of four-cylinder superbikes. Developed from its long line of highly successful multi-cylinder racers, MV Agusta's first road-going four - a twin-carburettor, 600cc tourer - appeared in 1965. But the public demanded something more exciting from many-times World Champions MV, and the Gallarate manufacturer duly obliged in 1969, upping capacity to 743cc and further boosting maximum power (to 69bhp) by fitting a quartet of Dell'Orto carburettors to the revised 750GT. Equipped with shaft rather than chain final drive, the latter arguably was more of a tourer than an out-and-out sports bike. Not that many people got to find out for themselves, for the MV was hand made in limited numbers and priced accordingly.Also in the line-up was the more sporting 750S. Its replacement - the 750S America - was introduced for 1976. Bored out to 789cc, the America produced a claimed 75bhp, an output sufficient to propel the Italian sports roadster to 100mph in around 13 seconds and on to a top speed of 135mph. The next stage of development was the Monza. A stretched (to 832cc) version of the 750S America, the Monza was marketed in Britain as the 'Boxer' until complaints from Ferrari (whose sports car had prior claim to the name) forced a change. Cast-alloy wheels, triple Brembo disc brakes, and a fairing - all optional on the 750S America - usually came as standard on the Monza. Motor Cycle magazine's John Nutting wrung 144mph out of a Monza, making it the fastest production machine in the world at that time. It was also the most expensive, costing almost twice as much as a comparable Japanese superbike. The Monza though, would prove to be short-lived and relatively few were made; by 1977 MV's motorcycle division was in administrative receivership and production ceased at the end of the following year.First registered on 14th September 1977, 'SAN 524S' is one of the two Boxers sold as such by Agrati. The other was sold to property developer John Safe, later Chairman of the MV Owners' Club of Great Britain, while this one was loaned by Agusta Concessionaires to former factory star and seven-time World Champion, Phil Read. In 1977, Phil took part in a road test of this Boxer for Super Bike magazine (copy on file). He had this to say about the Boxer: 'Until today, I didn't know what a magnificent bike it is. I've ridden it on the road, but you can't get near the limit there... Now, since riding the MV on a closed circuit in comparison with other road bikes, I've discovered what a superlative sports motorcycle it is.'Acquired by the current vendor on 9th May 2009, this ultra-rare MV four is offered from a private museum collection where it has been stored in a temperature controlled environment. The machine's last important outing was to the 'Made in Italy' rally in Munich, Germany in March 2017, and it was last run in December 2021. Accompanying paperwork includes five MoTs, the earliest issued in June 1988 at 6,242 miles and the most recent in May 2015 at 11,496 miles (the current odometer reading 11,534 miles). The machine also comes with a few bills; copies of previous registration documents; insurance and SORN paperwork; and old/current V5C documents. Presented in generally excellent condition, this beautiful Boxer represents a possibly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the MV collector.

J. Craig Thorpe (American, B. 1948) "Louisiana Locomotive" Signed lower left. Original Oil painting on Paper. Provenance: Collection of James A. Helzer (1946-2008), Founder of Unicover Corporation. This painting originally appeared on the Fleetwood Legendary Locomotives of the 50 States Louisiana Commemorative Cover postmarked May 8, 1995. Falling on hard times after the Civil War, the New Orleans, Opelousas & Great Western Railroad was sold at a sheriff's public auction in May 1869. The lucky bidder was Charles Morgan, operator of the first steamships on the Gulf of Mexico. After renaming his new purchase Morgan's Louisiana & Texas Railroad (ML&T), he later improved the road by changing it from broad to standard gauge. He is also credited with inaugurating a car ferry system across the Mississippi River. In addition to his transportation innovations, Morgan earned the respect of his fellow railroaders and employees by insisting that fair wages be paid in a timely fashion. This was particularly commendable, for many railroads of this era customarily allowed payrolls to fall in arrears. The punctual arrival of the ML&T pay car even inspired the regional expression, "regular as payday on the Morgan." Two years before his passing on May 8, 1878, Morgan was fittingly honored when the appreciative citizens of Brashear City, Louisiana, renamed their town Morgan City. Eventually the ML&T was taken over by the Southern Pacific Railroad, becoming part of the California-Texas-New Orleans main which is still in use today. Displayed here is ML&T's engine No. 47, a 4-4-0 passenger type built by Baldwin Locomotive Works of Philadelphia around 1883. Acquired just before the road was taken over by the Southern Pacific, the engine sports the customary star emblem signifying the Morgan line. Image Size: 14 x 12 in. Overall Size: 18 x 15 in.
