A Brief History of the Marque

Made in Great Britain from 1922 to 1954

Frederick J. Osborn built his first motorcycle using an MMC engine in 1901. After WWI, he produced OEC-Blackburne machines, later shortened to OEC. During the marque's long lifetime models were produced with large capacity V-twin JAP, Blackburne and Matchless engines, and with Villiers two-stroke engines after WWII.
