    Looks like one of the Italianicon-made No32s.

    The cradle numbering with the serial number is highly odd. Is this seen on other ex-Italian military No4(T)s, or did someone decide this would a nice touch as part of their "restoration"?

    Given the lack of TR and T, perhaps the whole conversion was done there? The pads look "different" IMHO - I'm not going to say how, for obvious reasons.
    “There are invisible rulers who control the destinies of millions. It is not generally realized to what extent the words and actions of our most influential public men are dictated by shrewd persons operating behind the scenes.”

    Edward Bernays, 1928

    Much changes, much remains the same.
