No reserve. A Large Decorative Painted Metal Model of a London General Omnibus Company Double-Decker Bus - A large-scale decorative model of an early 20th-century London General Omnibus Company open-top bus. The model is constructed from painted sheet metal with a red and white livery. The upper deck features four rows of grey bench seating and a rear-mounted spiral staircase leading to a boarding platform. The lower deck has interior seating visible through white-framed window openings. The front features a single cab positioned to the right of the radiator grille. The model is fitted with free-rolling wheels featuring white rubber-style tyres and brown hubs. The upper side panels are painted with yellow lettering reading Don't be vague-ask for Haig. The lower side panels feature the word GENERAL in yellow lettering. The front destination board is marked 27 in black on a white ground. A sign on the rear platform reads VACANT HOUSES FLATS at the top, though the text below is not clearly legible. The construction and finish suggest a modern decorative collectible designed with an antiqued appearance.
