    ORIGINAL  1923 TRADE - ADVERTISING CARD
    VINTAGE BRITISH CEDOS  MOTORCYCLE
    Cedos were motorcycles produced from 1919 to 1929. The name was derived from
    the name of brothers Cedric and Oscar Hanwell.
    1919 Just after the end of World War I, the company entered the market with ladies'
    and gents' lightweight motorcycles powered by their own 211cc two-stroke engine.
    Both models had a chain-driven, two-speed gearbox and belt final-drive. The ladies'
    model had an open frame and both had to be push-started.
    1921 They added a 257cc model, again in both ladies' and gents' versions.
    1922-1923 Only the larger model was listed. Following liquidation, the company had to
    be restructured.
    NOTE:
    THE REVERSE SIDE HAS TEXT ABOUT THE IMAGE ON THE FRONT
    I do not guarantee my identification for the year/model and it is a 'best guess'.
    With these cards there is often not enough information on the back for
    positive identification.

    2 5/8 '' x 1 3/8 ''  or  6.5 cm. x 3.5 cm.
