We have one of these - they were part of the early tool kit, I think, and used to protect the paint on the rad cowl when polishing the Wings & Wheels badge.

Nice to see.

They must be a fairly rear find, as the originals.

Out of all the tonnage I ever bought and sold.

These are the only 2 I ever found.

Interesting enough, one is austin 7. The other is for twelve and bigger

Willie McKenzie used to do new ones? For those who need one.
