1927-1929 (?) Blotto Triporteur

Saturday, April 28th, 2007

THE VEHICLES LISTED ABOVE ARE THE ONES I’M SELLING. WHAT FOLLOWS BELOW IS MY PERSONAL COLLECTION.
1927-1929 Blotto Triporteur (Not too sure yet of the exact age)

This is my Blotto ‘Auto-Tri.’

It’s a French triporteur with a 350cc Anzani engine.

In fact, the engine does not have any makers badge. But Anzani lived in France at that […]

Most people associate the name ‘Roadmaster’ with Buick. But this is the kind of Roadmaster that 10 year olds discovered next to the Xmas tree back in those good ol’ Leave-it-to-Beaver days.
I found it in a junk shop while we were in South Carolina in Easter 2005. I managed […]

1905 Alldays Carrier Tricycle

Friday, April 20th, 2007

This 1905 Alldays Carrier tricycle is my oldest vehicle. It was originally used by Watson Prickard Ltd, a firm of gent’s outfitters in Liverpool. Some old laundry boxes are inside, so I assume that one of its uses was to deliver clothes to and from the dry cleaners.
