1954 Triumph Terrier, 150 cc. Registration number OVC 625 (see text). Frame number T5846. Engine number T15 45801. In 1952 Triumph re-entered the market for lightweight commuter machines with the introduction of the 149cc Terrier, which stood out from the predominantly two-stroke opposition by virtue of being a four-stroke like the firm?s larger models. A simple, compact, unitary construction single incorporating a four-speed gearbox, the Terrier power unit went into a plunger-suspended frame while the model borrowed many styling cues from the bigger Triumphs. Deliveries commenced in August 1953 and shortly afterwards a trio of Terriers was ridden from Lands End to John O?Groats under A-CU supervision, averaging almost 37mph and in excess of 100 miles to the gallon. The Terrier was joined in 1954 by an enlarged version - the 200cc Tiger Cub - and continued in production alongside its bigger brother until August 1956. This example was bought by our vendor from a family friend who had recently lost her husband. Having sentimental value she has retained it for many years but now believes it is time it was passed on to someone who will restore it. It was last on the road in 1987. Sold with the purchase part of the V5C the proper document is missing and the new owner will need to apply for a new one.

Lavish work on the Moorish architecture of Southern Spain. Cork-born Irish architect and antiquary James Cavanah Murphy (1760-1814) travelled to Cadiz in 1802 and spent seven years studying the Moorish style, which was serialised in 1815-16 and followed by a one-volume edition with 98 plates of the buildings, ornaments, plans, fountains, views, gardens and Arabic inscriptions of the Alhambra complex and the Mosque at Cordoba. The publishers continued publishing the work until 1820, when their partnership was dissolved and publisher H.G. Bohn acquired the plates producing an additional four (starred) plates as in the present work. "Many interesting instances of gothicised distortions of the Alhambra can be found in The Arabian Antiquities of Spain... By distorting the proportions of the halls and courts, Murphy transforms the Alhambra into a 'sublime' building - to use Edmund Burke's term. In the Court of the Lions for example, the length of the patio is greatly extemded, giving the impression of a long and narrow space. This contrasts with the patio as it actually is, smaller, more compact, and somewhat square in its proportions. Furthermore, and what is peculiar to Murphy, the portico in the foreground is magnified in length and height thereby 'gothicising' its features... And it appears that Murphy deliberately distorted these proportions to make them more palatable to Gothic taste, as is made clear in the text accompanying this illustration, where we find the following: 'A beautiful portico, not unlike the portals of some Gothic churches projects into this court'." (The Burlington Magazine, volume CXXVIII, number 1001, August 1986).
