This is a well travelled Standard Utility: it originally came from the UK, then to Victory Museum in Belgium, then to USA, back to UK and now in the Netherlands.


Recently I found the Victory Museum catalogue from my visit to the museum in Arlon, Belgium in the early 1990s:

Also a picture of when it was on display in the Kruse WW2 Victory Museum - Auburn, IN in 2007: https://www.vgbimages.com/AFV-Photos...ictory-Museum/:

When it was auctioned in 2012: https://rmsothebys.com/en/auctions/m...p-light/734468.
It was bought by Richard D. Waistell and bought back to Berkshire, England:

It came back on the market in 2020 and was then sold to a Dutch collector.
As it stands today undergoing maintenance at Martin IJdo's Historic Engineering:
