(I'm resending this as it appears to have not made it through this weekend's downtime)

> 1939 Rudge-Whitworth Super-Sports Brochure
> 1940 Rudge-Whitworth Catalog
> (Late '30s) Hercules Cycles Brochure

The '39 Lewis Lightweight Bicycles catalog is up:

http://www.geocities.com/lightweightcatalog/1939/39lwlw1.html

This is currently hosted on a Yahoo!/GeoCities free account and has bandwidth limitations, so you might not be able to see it depending on traffic. Keep trying. I'll let Mark Bulgier know it is there and, if he wants, he can pull the images over to his catalog site. Sheldon has expressed some interest as well. In fact, anyone who would like the images is free to use them, just give me credit for the scans.

Enjoy,
