Right, sorted I think!
Rob, it looks like you were right after all.
The reason I said this box is not from a Wellesley is because of this Hobson advert concerning the part their products played in the World Record Long Distance Flight in 1938.
However, I now realise that the box used in the advert is actually the Roc/Skua type, not one from a Wellesley.
I say this because look what I’ve found at the RAF Museum…
