    Photos 1, 7, 9, and 11 are SD Triumphs. I'm pretty sure the SD ( spring drive ) first appeared in 1922 but didn't get the drum front brake until 1924 so that would make the ones in the photos 1924 or later models
    The one registered CM 36 appears in photos 1, 9, and 11

    Photo 10 is a P and M, (Phelon and Moore) a company that changed it name to Panther in 1925. My guess is either a 1923 or 1924 model.

      After a second look I think I can see a front frame downtube on that bike I said was a P and M so that makes me wrong and I withdraw my claim that it's a P and M

        Who Cares?

        Vince,
        Who cares what kind of motorcycycles they were riding in west Africa until 1935?

        Just kidding, the pictures are neat, thanks for posting the link. I didn't have a chance at the prize anyway so I'm just a sore loser.
