Damn! Just saw this and would have bought it in a flash.

Clive: I've contacted the seller in reference to the photo. His listing states it's a reprint from the original negative. He may have the original negative, in which I don't think you'd have a problem buying a copy. Fingers crossed, I'll keep you posted.....Robert

Robert, thanks. May be worth asking if there are others from the series.

Cheers,

Can't figure how anyone found this. The seller placed it in WWI German items!

Good point Clive to see what else he may have in his vault. I'll check that out. I'll get the details and put him on to you. For your information, I found this on ebay under "Vickers Militaria". He had it on last month, but no buyers, timing is everything. Stay tuned

... I got it ...... you can use it. Just wanted to make sure it stayed in the right hands.

The print on Ebay looked very sharp. Should be no problem reproducing it for publication..... besides I usually post everything on MLU for the collective good of our hobby.

Clive, as the elephant said to the mouse, "Dis yo' lucky day". Had a nice chat withe the seller tonight and he HAS the original negative. Actually, he said he might have some better negatives of the truck. I've asked him to stay in touch with the other photos. He also has a whack of negatives from the Irish Regiment that you might be interested in, along with a lot of other little interesting tidbits. Probably a guy you should stay in touch with. I'll PM you his email address and you can take it from there. Good luck.....Robert PS: Nice one BooBee.
