A Car Badge to be Prized.
THE collection of different car-badges has many adherents among sports car owners, national club-badges being particularly esteemed. Now a new one has appeared, and a specimen has reached the offices of the Automobile Association in London. It is the badge of the ” A.A. of Finland,” the Suomi
Touring Club, and is of most attractive
design.
A most interesting proviso is made before the badge can be obtained. It can only be secured in the Petsamo region, at the end of the journey to the Far North, and so it is only issued to motorists who reach the Arctic Ocean across Finland and the “midnight sun” regions of Lapland.
An Alternative Upper-Cylinder Lubricant.
THE Filtrate Company has had on the market for many years now an upper-cylinder lubricant known as ” Petroyle.” Now, in response to a steady demand from discerning motorists, they have introduced an alternative grade known as ” Colloidal Petroyle,containing the specified quantity of Acheson’s Colloidal Graphite.
“Colloidal Petroyle ” is available in pint tins only, at the identical price of ‘ Petroyle,” viz., 3s. per tin.
