MG The Illustrated Catalogue of Spares: Seventh Edition, Covering Models 1929–1939 by Sports & Vintage Motors (Shrewsbury) Limited

The Illustrated Catalogue of Spares, Seventh Edition, was issued by Sports & Vintage Motors (Shrewsbury) Limited of Upper Battlefield, Shrewsbury, specialist suppliers of parts for pre-war MGs and approved by British Motor Heritage. This undated landscape booklet carries a photograph of an MG TC on the cover.

The catalogue covers MG models built from 1929 to 1939: the M, C, D, J1 to J4, F1 to F3, PA, PB, Q, R, L1, L2, NA, NB, ND, NE, K1 to K3, KN, KD, TA, TB and TC. It lists part numbers and descriptions with a chart showing which models each part fits, arranged by section from front axle spares, brakes and carburettors through engine, gearbox, electrical, bodywork and trim. There is an index to parts, a list of abbreviations, lubrication recommendations for MMM and TA types, and road maps showing the way to the Shrewsbury premises.

Period parts catalogues like this are useful working tools for anyone restoring or maintaining a pre-war MG, as they help identify the right part for each model, and they are also collected in their own right as MG and motoring ephemera.

This will suit owners and restorers of pre-war MG Midgets, Magnettes and T-series cars, MG club members and collectors of motoring literature.

Condition – Very Good

A very good copy of this stapled booklet. The covers are bright, with light rubbing and a few small nicks to the edges and spine, slight wear to the corners and light toning. The interior is clean and unmarked, and the binding is sound.
