Honda Grand Prix Racing Replica Motorcycle
Located in Potters Bar, GB
Golden Age Racer: Honda Grand Prix Replica
We are pleased to offer this high-quality, visually striking Honda Grand Prix Racing Replica
Motorcycle, styled after the legendary 1960s Honda works racers (such as the RC series).
Acquired in Fochabers, Scotland, from a large and important private collection, this piece is a superb homage to Honda's dominance in the golden age of motorcycle racing.
Key Features and Detailing:
Racing Style: Features classic 1960s road racer aesthetics, including a red and yellow livery, racing seat, full fairing, and low handlebars.
Proven Quality: The bike bears a label referencing the "Honda Collection Hall," suggesting it was either built to museum standards or sourced from a major collector. This confirms its status as a high-end tribute piece.
Functionality: The engine is believed to be in running order, though as it was part of a collection and lost its papers, it would require recommissioning prior to any use.
Display Value: This is a fantastic, unusual, and rare piece of motorcycle memorabilia...

American Darting Gun Toggle Iron Harpoon, Marked Macy, for Bark Sunbeam
Located in Nantucket, MA
Antique American Darting Gun Toggle Iron Harpoon, made by E.B. and F. Macy, New Bedford, for the Larboard Boat on the Whaling Bark Sunbeam (1856 - 1908), having an improved toggle head with acute barb (standing nearly at a right angle), and an unusual ridged cheek, with the maker's mark MACY stamped on the right cheek (the mark of E.B. & F. Macy, blacksmiths of New Bedford: 1861-1904), the ship stamp BK SB on the left cheek (for the Bark Sunbeam, and the dot punched boat mark L B (for the Larboard, or Second, or Port-side Stern whale boat); mounted on a round shank slightly kinked from use, ending in the spike end necessary for use with a darting gun, and the loop for splicing on the iron strap. An amazing artifact retaining a tremendous amount of historical documentation.
The harpoon remain in very good condition with a still very sharp cutting edge and deep brown patina and no corrosion. The head is frozen, but in the absence of rust it would very likely free up with a little lubrication if so desired. The tip of the front barb has a small chip off tip. The slight kink to the shank comes from use and is considered by most to be a a good feature.
The Bark SUNBEAM was built in Mattapoisett in 1856 and enjoyed a long career in the New Bedford whale fishery of 17 voyages to the Pacific, Atlantic and Indian Oceans. Clifford Ashley...
