We have moved our caravan to a place just outside Hull, I’ve started getting random things coming up an Facebook, this picture just came up, it’s from when Humbrol paints was made in Hull, this is from 1985

Very interesting John, the pillow tells a story in itself about band work... Hope you're doing fine in the new place, cheers 👍
 
Imagine the excitement when 'Sandra' got to use a different colour.
 
Great picture.

I now understand why I got a pot of H85 Satin Coal Black with a difference -

'Sandra' must have been bored or distracted and put an H65 Matt Aircraft Blue lid on one tin. She realised her mistake and painted the lid black! It was indeed H85 Satin Black in the left hand tin.

Hang on Dave, that could be the model world's equivalent of a miss stamped coin. Rare as hen's teeth.
