Came across these pictures in our local framers a few days ago. Weird as they're very similar to our two cars. Thought it would be nice to share them.

Which one is older - find it odd the woman looks to have lost weight
in the second picture, yet wears the same dress....

Was it common for poor women to shoot cats in the head?

The characters in the pictures appear to be wearing COVID face masks
.
An example of Morris owners being ahead of their time?

I bought this a while ago at auction.
Hand painted on timber board whoever did it made a decent job of it.

I would say that was an original sign looking at the detail

No its not an original sign, its hand painted but on MDF board.
Very well done whoever did it though, I like it as its a bit battered and bruised and brightens up my garage.

I asked the better 'arf for a few Minor related things for my Birthday this year, including an A3 (approx) size reproduction Advertising Poster, mounted on a composite material of some sort. Far cheaper than an original metal one.
The idea being that I could easily drill it and convert it into a wall clock for the garage; if it went wrong, I hadn't ruined anything too expensive.
Wall Clock is now mounted where I can easily refer to it while working on the car.

I picked this particular poster as it wasn't too 'messy' an image, so the clock could be made out OK, and it's a Black SII

Hang on to it - if someone else gets hold of it they may 'upgrade' it to a digital one!
