Brockhouse Corgi Classic Scooters

The Brockhouse Corgi was manufactured in Southport, Merseyside.

The Mark 1 (1947) was exported to the USA as the Indian Papoose, as Brockhouse had recently bought the Indian company name. As Mark 1s were not officially sold in UK, the Mark 2 was the first model available here, released in 1948.
