Anyone heard of this company?
I found a very nice enamelled badge in the recesses of my '35 Rover 10
this weekend.
(The engine rebuild is underway and I am off to the platers to get
various bits of bright work re- done. I prefer nickel plating, but am
not going to re-do the whole thing just for the sake of my edwardian
desires).
The badge - in sky and royal blue enamel has the inscription:
Car supplied by Rossleigh, motor engineers to the King. Glasgow,
Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen, Stirling, Kirkcaldy Leeds Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
My car still has original British number plates BOP 618, which someone
told me were issued in Manchester in 1935; can anyone throw any light on
Rossleigh?
