Pratts supplied/manufactured engine oil for motor vehicles.
 
In the 1921 Kellys 1514 was William C. Nind ,coal dealer. The next Kellys I have is 1932 where it is the Nind Garage. This was still there in the 1936 edition , but by 1937 it is Alex Haining's garage. There is no Pratt nearby in 1932,33,or 36.
