VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image is a black and white advertisement promoting the sale of government surplus machine tools. The headline reads "RE-EQUIP with Government Surplus Machine Tools" in bold, capital letters, indicating an opportunity for businesses or individuals to purchase machinery previously owned by the government. Below the headline is an illustration of a robust industrial milling machine or lathe, suggesting the type of equipment available for purchase. This visual serves to attract attention from those in industries that could benefit from such machinery. The body text provides specific locations where interested parties can find these surplus tools, listing various Disposal Centres across different cities: Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, Leeds, London (two locations), Manchester and Belfast. Each city is followed by addresses or street names where these centers are located. At the bottom section of the ad are additional details about how potential buyers can obtain catalogues and submit tenders for purchasing this equipment. It mentions that tender forms must be submitted before a certain date—although this date isn't visible in the provided portion of the image—and advises on where to send them (to any Royal Ordnance Factory). Finally, there's a note stating that payment can be made either cash down or through installment terms arranged with District Finance Officers. This information suggests flexibility in payment options to accommodate different financial capabilities. The advertisement concludes with "Issued by the Ministry of Supply, " attributing its origin and authority to a governmental department responsible for overseeing such sales post-war era when military surplus was commonly sold off. Overall, this advertisement reflects post-World War II economic activity wherein governments aimed to liquidate excess inventory while simultaneously aiding industry growth by providing access to affordable heavy machinery.
