1914 Veloce..... a view of a catalogue in my archive

Really early examples of early Velocette motorcycles, including their earlier name Veloce are rare.
Veloce Limited were of course the manufacturers...
Recently Pete Young who publishes his Occhio lungo web blog restored a very poor example of a 1913 Veloce...heaps of work but the bike is restored and I'd guess the jewel in the crown of Pete's motorcycle collection.
Looks real good to me....
 He featured items on it on his blog....his thank you file.....the first time it started...His first ride on the bike... 
I've got an original 1914 Veloce catalogue....
It features examples of the Veloce and the smaller two stroke that they called the Velocette...
So let's have a look through it....
Pete Young with one of his youngsters at the 2006 North American Velo OC Rally and Ride...looks like the Saturday afternoon following the week long ride at the annual judging...Pete has his "riders choice" judging form and a pencil at the ready....
