Motor Cycling was one of the first UK motorcycle magazines. Launched in 1903, its green cover led to it being called "The Green 'un" to distinguish it form its rival publication The Motor Cycle but the cover eventaully became multi-coloured.[1] Selling for eightpence in the 1950's, many issues had the strapline "Circluated throughout the World".
