I took photos of these three Royal Enfield posters that are hanging in my garage and downstairs bedroom.  And I will toss in a poster of a painting of Alice's restaurant back in the 1960's, or at least that is my guess from looking at the cars in the picture.

When I was a kid my Dad had a motorbike breakers and spares shop, and there would often be things like that first poster up or on promo materials, and I used to think to myself "it's great that those women like their motorbikes, but they really should be wearing better clothes for it!"

I'm still disappointed at the reality of the situation both then and how it continues (albeit to a lesser extent) now.

Those temperature probes on poster #1 appear to indicate a typical cool English day... ;D
