Default AFTAG Spare Part Labels

This will almost exclusively apply to our Australian MLU members ....

Does anyone have, amongst their collection:

(1) a spare part for an Australian Cruiser Tank with an AFTAG label
(2) an interchangeable spare part for a Carrier MG, Carrier AT and Carrier M, with an AFTAG label, please?

I'm looking for high resolution images of the labels that are in good, readable condition, please. Can PM me if you prefer.

Thanks

Mike

I'm not exclusively (not even slightly) Australian, but are these what you want Mike?

Interesting to note the "Made In New Zealand" information. I don't think the Aust tags went so far to state "Made in Australia".

Hi Tony

The Aust ones intended for local use with locally manufactured parts had DAFVP (spelled out in full) and Melbourne, but not the country. Most I've seen did not have (Aust) after the AT and Mortar, either, just after MG.

So some interesting variations.

Mike
