MG had been manufacturing reasonably priced, small-yet-attractive sports cars since the 1920s. MG was synonymous with sports cars at one time in Japan. The Midget is the most typical MG car. The Type M was introduced in l928 and Type J in l932. It evolved into the PA Midget in 1934. A typical Midget had a simple roadster body - as was often the case with small-sized British sports cars. However, this entry has an airline coupe body, which followed the worldwide trend of streamlined bodies popular in the mid 1930s. This small body with its distinctive elegance was made by Carbodies, makers of most of the MG products at that time. The PB was introduced in 1935 with a more powerful engine, but production was ended after a year when its successor, the TA Midget, made its debut. Only l4 PG Airline Coupes, similar to this entry, were ever manufactured.
