|
Does any one have any information about the 'Regularity Model'?
I have tried Google: Graces Guide:Motor Sport Archive and the Commercial Motor archive to no avail.
I have a small ad. from the Motor circa 1950 showing the device and the price of 30s 6p and that is about all the info. I have.
My reason for this request is that I'm writing one of my articles about the 1950's car accessory market so, someone,please help me......

Gentlemen,
Thank you for your responses....
The Blackwell Mk V looks a bit like a palm shaped computer; it is not a flat disc device (I have one of them from Speedwell). It appears to be three dials held in a casing. The dials are listed (top to bottom) SPEED: TIME and
DISTANCE.
If there is one out there please let me know..........
