This is a RARE issue of "The Midget Motors Directory," a bi-monthly sales listing, trading post and parts locator for owners of gasoline motors, Midget racers, Midget cars, motor scooters, motorcycles, motor bicycles and small-engine power equipment!


Interesting story to the “Directory” . . . a vehicle for selling Midget Motors products as well as “form in one handbook, all of the bargains in small vehicles and equipment on which we can obtain information . . . we do not charge for listing any small motorized vehicle in the directory . . .


In addition to the company’s advertisements for their products, this contains Classifieds of people who are trying to sell their Indian Motorscooters . . . Briggs engines . . . Harley Davidsons ~ Johnson Outboard motors ~ Cushman scooters etc.


That 1952 Harley Davidson 125 with 10,000 miles will cost you $200! Or perhaps you prefer the 1947 Doodlebug motorscooter for $60 or the 1952 Whizzer motorbike for $150 . . .
