My Wilesco-Surprise of the weekend

This sunday i was at our local model-engineering and model-train flea-market.
Now on this market there is always an older man, who has always wilesco stuff etc. (story starts very good, eh?)

I used to buy alsways stuff from him, driving models or whatever he had brought with him.
He told me this will be the last time he sells something on markets (because he's too old now)

And because this was now his last time in my city he decided to give me a little present
He gave me a map full of old papers....here's what it is

PS. before he gave it to me, my girlfriend found that map somewhere on his stand....
So many thanks to her It was technicaly her "found"


Made of cardboard, is this a kind of instruction?


Instruction for Wilesco D20, i think from the 80's


Wilesco Roller, from the 70's i think




Instructions for the wilesco ship's engine


Very old instruction's from the 50's


Also very old



And now watch this one!
We all may have already seen how a wilesco D32 looks like...
But did you ever see the instructions with the engine?
Well, here you go!
This is how the front looks like....
Everything all original of course



Not bad for 0,- euro's

It would be interesting to compare that German SE2A instruction leaflet with an english version to see how Mamod coped with the translation.

Some of Wilesco's english instructions have the odd funny word or two.
