Description:
This is a very nice and functional Oliver 5 from the Bob Aubert collection. Judging by the pound symbol and the decals for the sales representative in London, this was an export to Britain. No idea how it came back stateside. Cleaning revealed some old attempts to re-paint parts of the base. At times it was difficult to tell what was original paint but dirty, versus newer paint. Delran, NJ (July 2023).
