(Stand 303).–
A very large show of forecar and other bodies for motor cycles is exhibited here. They comprise all sorts, shapes, and sizes, and patterns, not only in cane work–for which Mr. Plater is more particularly celebrated–but also in coach-built work. One of the cane-bodied forecars is made with a scroll front, a part of which serves as a very handy receptacle for tools and other sundries. As it does not go right down to the base, the foot space is in no way restricted. A combined apron and cape should afford complete protection against the elements so far as the passenger is concerned.
