Nice find Johnboy especially at 99p.

The inscription on the front was added on behalf of the garage and the number of examples done like this will be very low, specially if it was for a long serving member of staff. Modern day replacement pens in a style similar to the originals would look OK, something like this...https://www.foremostproducts.co.uk/prod ... desk-pens/

A cheap job lot here which came from an auction house with only the one photo and not much interest, but it yielded a very playworn little gem. Code 1 but with the pat no. and some garden dirt.

Brilliant spot! Well done!
Finds like this and Reg's Alfa Caribo show that, if you are prepared to invest the time in searching, there are still rarities to be found.
