would look nice on top of an instrument panel project

I see it’s not listed now and the seller got a bit arsey when it was pointed out that it wasn’t Battle of Britain
He took it quite personally for someone who was “listing on behalf of a friend” 😀
Do the BBMF know about this? 🙂
Looks like a well battered set of odds and sods -from different MkX aircraft judging by the stencilling.
Post twelve,some of the ASR boats had marinised merlins(lion?)so why would they not have ign switches,equaly safe at sea with twin mags!!
I was wrong then.
Would it be from an ASR boat?
Not with twin magnetos I would think. What about those funny sofa-shaped cutouts at the top – what fits in there?
congratulations – it turns out to be an iconic piece!
Hmm, doesn’t look much like this one

I was guessing at Bristol freighter but couldn’t find a picture to check.
Who would put the radios next to the mag. switches?
No.3 is possible from a Wessex!
I agree, Chocktaw variant, the shape of the corners looks exactly like the Wessex.
3 is helicopter – a big one. Don’t know about the other two.

Nice -but evidently not worth 800 quid on greEdbay!
well the attribution has been used on another part – and that was a fake

As you say, general purpose. These appear in immediate post-war types (Lincoln and Brigand are two random examples). The Lancaster ones were like a little square block with a tiny crank handle
Spitfirespares is good -just divide by three.
I think the auction will go for more than the estimate!
