Thanks everyone!

Here are new pics!

I am just new to this but have inherited some cool Matchbox I have an orange number 15! I don't know what variation this is - I will get a photo on asap. Is that a Prime Mover? What is a Prime Mover?

I also have number 11

I see that each number of matchbox can have several variations - how do you know what variation you have? Is there is place to find?

I'm sorry for all the questions but I'm really enjoying this new hobby

New photos in better light
They look a bit dusty!

Brilliant, I love it even more. Knowing the detail is part of the fun, I think.

I can confirm that the wheels are metal and of course it is a short stem.

Ah yeah, there is a big difference. Thanks for pointing that out

Hi, I have just joined and I don't know much. I have just inherited some really cool Lesney Matchbox from just after the war and completely unused. I was not in a rush to sell them but of course had a look to see their worth..... and I found this - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/like/300558089665?limghlp...
