Traction Engine Book
Busy rationalising my book/magazine collection.
 I have for sale a copy of "Painted Engines" By J.H.Russell published 1965. Each chapter has a coloured photo of an engine in preservation, 2 pages of a description and history, a list of dimentions and a black & white photo of it in pre-preservation days. The engines in the book are as follows:- Burrell No 1127 Lord Burrell Walker centre engine wks no unknowns Savage electric light engine No. 537 Fowler Showmans engine No.15116 Bertha Burrell Showmans No. 3909 Winston Churchill Foden Tractor No.12852 Early Bird Allchin No. 2146 Ransomes No. 37087 Robey No. 29330 Fowler No. 14402 Jemima Ruston-proctor portable No. 175037 Marshall No. 71837 Ruston-proctor No.SH 44836 Tulip Queen Fowler Showmans No. 14862 Evening Star (also known as Birdlip and Excelsior) Burrell Showmans No.3489 King George VI McClaren No.1837 Bluebell The book ends with a 4 page "Traction-engine operating for the novice owner/driver" and a list of clubs and societies. The book is 10 inches wide, 7.5 inches high & 0.75 inches thick. In as new condition except for a half inch tear in the dust cover. Any offers?
