Chicagoland MG Club’s National Affiliates

The only Y-Type, to match Karel’s postcard, in my shoe box is this Christmas card by Kevin Walsh. While it is Spring, and the weather is very nice, here in Decatur, GA, it snowed a bit in Chicago only 10 days ago, so hopefully this wintery scene is still ok. It is called: Christmas Eve at the Station and the description on the card is: As the 6800 Class Great Western pulls into the station, the Maroon MG Y Type Saloon and the Black 1955 Standard 10 await their passengers. Meanwhile the BSA Bantam draws to a halt to allow a cyclist to pass.

The card was published by The Almanac Gallery and sold in aid off Ben, Reg. Charity no. 297877. (MG Y-Types were built between early 1947 and late 1953; 6158 YA’s, 1301 YB’s with larger wheels and a few other small differences, and 877 YT four-seater tourers)
