I possess very little memorabilia of Park Royal Vehicles. However, apart from my father's drawing board (a Harper Tunstall measuring 32" by 54"), the accompanying T-square and various drawing implements, I have the following small selection of drawings/blueprints. |

(*) A. Daniell was my father, Alf Hill's, sister-in-law Ann (1922-2003) who worked in the Park Royal Drawing Office during WW2. (?) I cannot make out the signature after the "S. A.". I also possess an original front motif transfer for the "China Motor Bus Company Ltd" produced by "The Palm Brothers Decalomania Co." based in New York, Cincinnati and Chicago. It is design number NU. 40353. An anecdote: Please read "The Big Clear Out" |
