I have found this in some paperwork, I think it dates from circa 1918 -20
I wonder what takes you fancy...

and you know that some people will say that they are overpriced if that was in today's money

I'd quite like the Otto Gas engine by Crossley Bros. of Manchester
Twin 6ft 6" fly wheels and pushin out 40 - 50Hp
Bargain at £225 (apparently about £10k in todays money)..i'd still like one

Also the advert uses the word "appurtenance" I had to look that up !! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appurtenance

Most underused word. ( new to me ).

although slaves may be politically incorrect these days, its much easier to say than the other word.
