| Before & After |
We have started this page to see how many Pictures of original Indian
Dealerships we can come up with. Hopefully a before and after shot, one of
the shop as it was way back in the 1900's and another of how the shop/building
looks today.
First dealer we have is Wells Indian Dealership. They had two premises,
one was 168-202 Great Portland Street, London. This was occupied from
approximately 1908. The other address was their new address of 368 Euston
Road. As you can see the Euston Road address has been rebuilt with a
1970's office block, but we do have an old advertisement showing the premises as
they should have looked, complete with the title of "Indian House"

Secondly we have a photo of the former Claude Rye emporium in Fulham Road,
London. They occupied nearly the whole parade
of shops. They sold their entire stock of Indian parts to the American
Motorcycle Register some time in the 'sixties. The advertisement is from the
1955 telephone directory.

If anyone can help out with original photos or any information on the history
of these, or any other, dealerships, please contact me at webmistress@indianriders.co.uk
I am sure there will be lots of people interested.
