It may be that the print was made in the 1950s, but the photograph was clearly taken in 1939-1945 because of the wartime blackout modifications on the vehicle - the white line painted on the mudguard and the hood on the headlamp.
Ballingall, Donaldson, Fulton, Gillespie, Ramsay, Walker - in Fife.
Bury - in Salford & Liverpool.
Jack - in Glasgow, Dunfermline & Dundee.
Bermingham/Birmingham - in Cork.
Eagle - in Norfolk, Edinburgh & Glasgow.
