Auction sites really do show up some oddballs some of which have given fuel for paint.

Perhaps not this. The roundel appears to have been painted over the airline logo and it is wearing a Hercules serial

I'm sure there is a story here but I know not what

Hi Leif

Film prop would make sense.

I have never come across a pic or even a mention of this before.

I saw O Lucky Man, starring Malcolm McDowell, Helen Mirren and a host of Great British actors, great music by Alan Price and his band. Directed by Lyndsey Anderson, Quite surreal.
