There is a gap in the BSA ledgers where this block fits except for these two, one of which is the infamous George Formby mystery M20

Frame 3373 Engine 515 05/09/1946 Croyden Alcester
Frame 3523 Engine 3523 05/02/1942 Mr George Formby

And three of these machines still exist according to the frame numbers page on this site.

This machine also would appear to prove they were manufactured.

Thank you for the replies!

@Rob: that particular India Office contract is already mentioned in O&M.

Till so far I have found the following booklets with information not yet mentioned in O&M (from various owners):

Hi all,

We have had some discussions on this forum about rider instruction booklets in the past. Some people even shared photos of their collection of rider instruction books. I have saved most of these photos as some of the booklets provide additional information about 'missing' contracts in O&M.

The photo below was also on this forum, but I can not remember in which thread and who posted it. Does anyone recognize the photo below? I would like to have a better photo of the yellow booklet on the left (India Office contract, currently missing in O&M).

Thanks in advance for your replies.

Regards,
Bastiaan
