    ORIGINAL  1923 TRADE - ADVERTISING CARD
    VINTAGE NER-A-CAR  MOTORCYCLE
    The Ner-A-Car was a type of feet forwards motorcycle designed by Carl Neracher in 1918. It used
    an unusual steel-channel chassis, much like an automobile, and hub-center steering at the front
    wheel, making it 'nearly a car' in design. The Ner-A-Car was the most successful hub-center steering
    motorcycle ever produced, with sales far eclipsing earlier or later examples of this design, such as
    the Yamaha GTS1000 or Bimota Tesi. About 10,000 Neracars were manufactured in the United
    States by the Ner-A-Car Corporation (under the Neracar name), while around 6,500 are believed
    to have been produced in England under licence by the Sheffield-Simplex company between 1921
    and 1926 under the Ner-A-Car name.
