34. Douglass Motorcycle
Source: National Motorcycle Museum- Bickenhill, Solihull, England
In 1882, brothers William and Edward Douglas came together to create the Douglas Engineering Company in Bristol, England. Their first motorcycle was produced between 1902 and 1904. However, by the time World War I rolled around they would mass produce more than 70,000 motorcycles exclusively for the military. If you comb through war photos you can find Douglas motorcycles and pictures of the brothers themselves in locales like Mons and the armistice in France. More contemporary pictures find them in remote places like Africa and Mesopotamia. And while the war Douglas was used by all of the Allied powers, it was a favorite of the British employed by their Navy, Army, and Fledgling Royal Flying Corps.
