W.F. Omodei Pty Ltd, the motorcycle accessory business in Sydney that I featured items previously from their counter data books , lets follow the Norton items in those books.....

As mentioned in the last post, I've most of the trade catalogues and literature items from W.F.Omodei Pty.,Ltd, including the fascinating made up data books for the counter staff to ascertain products in stock for the major motorcycle brands from the 1930's...
Last time we featured Velocette and some accessory stuff...
This time it is Norton.
I notice that Reg Hardy who was the manager of Omodeis for such a long time up until its closure had cut up Norton "Road-Holder" catalogues for 1938 to add to his data book....
 Interesting to note the hand written comments by Reg Hardy on these pages....I've enhanced them, as they were often in pencil and almost now illegible....
Terms such as "big seller"....
