Scope and Content

This richly detailed timeline poster chronicles the evolution of MG production cars from the brand’s inception in 1924 through 1966. Featuring black-and-white photographs and concise model summaries, it showcases MG’s transformation from early touring cars like the 14/28 to postwar icons such as the MGA and MGB. Each entry highlights engine specs, body styles, and historical significance, offering a visual and textual journey through British motoring history. Originally published in Safety Fast magazine and reprinted by the British Motor Corporation in 1967, it serves as both a collector’s reference and a celebration of MG’s engineering legacy.
