Mmm nice Fordson Super Major. Blue with orange wheel rims (and engine and gearbox too?)

[Armidillo]

The Simms thing would be the diesel injection pump.

Here's a massive curve ball for you, it follows on from your pair...

(Not the grey 308 SW beyond)

P.s. if there's a makers name I'll try and find it now!

Welll its a nice textured abstract image in close up Matt, but not sure where the link comes in...you may have to give us a clue

Mini -- minilite to --

stippolyte

I thought it was spelt stippo lite (as per the wheels) but seems is with a Y instead!

I'd not realised quite how old it is, 1915 mentioned on the image above, taken from here:

Like the thinking Matt, and I did home in on the texture, but would never have been on the same wavelength to hit the whole curved ball!

Feel free to paddle around and post in the Trivia Investigation Thread always nice to find out more about random stuff like that, which you wouldn't otherwise come across. I like a bit of industrial history. I am sure stippolyte glass has a bit more to find than a pic...

Trivia Investigation thread is perfect for those random asides....latest one musing about where the Kawasaki "W" logo for its W series of motorcycles originated from starts here viewtopic.php?p=804941#p804941 after having dealt with "Desert Boots" and hundreds of other quirky topics previously.

Ah yes a good idea, sits better in there - especially as I couldn't find a Stippolyte maker's name.

We'll have to settle for Pilkington's logo:

When I bought my first house I built a large garage out of Chance Bros packing cases scrounged from their driver who lived next door to where I worked.

The article you linked to is food and drink of the Trivia Investigation Thread...very detailed, niche subject area, plenty of solid information and pictures. I'll shove up a link and photograph our textured glass bathroom window on the Trivia Investigation thread.

Probably the finest name ever for a motorcycle...

Velocette Venom I do believe

Just about everything you could ever need or want has been made in Birmingham through the years Neil.
