This is where is could get confusing as Wilesco made the identical ones in the identical colours, so does anybody know if Wilesco took over Arnold at some stage?

Arnold Sawyer with Circular Saw, c1945.





I am including this next two pictures as proof that these are Arnold figures and not Wilesco. I do not have the figures in the next two pictures.

No worries mate, we are used to translating Lincolnshire already.

Les those are great accessories, what reference books do you use to identify them.
