Royal Mail Crown and Horn

Post by DaveB »

Hi Guys,

Do you any of you out there have a decent shot/pic of the old Royal Mail Crown and Horn (note the emphasis on old!)??? I've spent a great deal of time searching online today and going through my shots but have come up empty handed :sad: Pre '52 will be ok (King's crown) or '52+ (Queen's crown) at a push but nothing too recent as it will be out of era for the model it needs to go on.

Don't panic.. it's nothing new (a model that is).. just a repaint of an existing model. For reference.. something akin to what was on the tail of G-AFEZ/G-AGSH is what I'm after. B&W is a start.. colour on the button :wink:

Tks in anticipation :smile:

Thanks anyway John :smile:

Those are the common web offering and are too low res. :sad:

Funny how difficult some things can be to source properly :worried:


Cheers

Agreed Garry. I'd found those and discarded them. Better than nothing but too low a res to be useful. Odd how something so common place is now so difficult to find :roll:
