Export Trader magazine for February 1947...a look at a few articles- JAP speedway engines, Velocette range for 1947 and Velocette and Vincent-HRD adverts.....

I've a couple of these small magazines for the years 1947 and 1957...."Export Trader- British cycles and Motor Cycles"....
Published by the Iliffe Group who were a major publishing house and of course produced "The MotorCycle"....it was to ensure the British Industry associated with cycles and motorcycles got worldwide exposure.
This edition, February 1947 covers the drive by the British government to get export sales and thus revenue for Britain....
I'll be looking at two articles....."The Heart is British" which covers the J.A.P speedway engine and the Velocette range for 1947 with two adverts from Velocette and Vincent-HRD.
I'll feature some other items in a later blog....
