Lot 578
Extremely Rare 1st Model Twin Tube Airborne Forces Folding Bicycle, this type of bike was the first model design with twin tubes leading to the leather seat, this was soon replaced with the more common found single tube versions. This example retains nearly all of its original paint finish to the frame. Front section with the BSA makers mark. Original handle bar coverings with BSA makers mark. Original chain and pedals and war economy marked tyres. The front section of the bike numbered 548076 and 83841. Leather BSA marked saddle shows some wear with the leather becoming dry and flaking in places. Repair kit pouch fitted to the back. Overall this is a superb example of an extremely rare item of Airborne forces equipment.It is believed that approximately 60,000 examples of the folding bike were manufactured by the BSA between 1942 and 1945. The majority of this number were the later single tube design. Only a handful of twin tube examples are known to exists around the world with many museums not having an example. They were famously issued to the British Airborne Forces who parachuted into Normandy on D-Day and Arnhem later in 1944. They were issued these bikes as a way for the troops to quickly cover large areas of ground in a quiet manner as they were behind enemy lines. However many of the paratroopers found these cumbersome so abandoned them soon after landing. The bikes were held out in front of the paratroopers when they parachuted in behind enemy lines. Many famous wartime images can be seen of these bikes in use. The vendor acquired the item with other items from the estate of the Chief Clerk of the 6th Airborne division. We are not able to offer in house post and packing on this lot, personal collection or specialist shipping.

'Luis del Marmol Carvajal left his home in 1535 to fight in the African Regiments with the Hapsburg [emperor] Charles V. A short time thereafter he was captured by corsairs off the coast of Tunis … It was as the prisoner of the Sa’di sultan [of Morocco] Ahmad al-A’raj that Marmol came to Marrakesh … When he was finally ransomed, Marmol chose to remain in Africa, improving the Arabic he had learned during his imprisonment … He returned to Spain to begin writing his work sometime around 1570. Diego de Torres arrived in Marrakesh in 1546 charged with ransoming captives in the name of the Portuguese king. He remained there until 1550, possibly overlapping with Marmol’s period of captivity. Like Marmol, Torres also learned Arabic, and was mostly on good terms with the new sultan, Muhammad al-Shaykh' (Gottreich, The Mellah of Marrakesh, 2007, p. 14).Provenance: Gaddesden Place, Hertfordshire, seat of the Halsey family, with bookplates.
