Al,

I may be wrong, but my first impression of the Princess Diana & Prince Charles coach is that it is by Marlborough.

The oxen ambulance does have the early Trophy touch.

Hi Al

I afraid you have me stumped, I can't find any reference to the Indian Army ambulance, that does not mean it is not Trophy but that it is a very early set and produced before my catalogues begin. I don't have any info on ceremonial sets at all, sorry

Cheers

Very nice Al

What a great find!

Raymond, Scott and Martyn,
Thank you for your comments. The Oxen Ambulance was confirmed to be a Trophy and it it was sold Under Two Flags in early Trophy days. Coronation coach has a Marlborough look, the horses and a carriage in particular but the figures are different. Both pieces are from a collection of one of the first Trophy dealers in the US.
I e-mailed Len the pictures but have not heard from him yet.

The coach from the wedding set is certainly a dead ringer for the William Britains Landau set from the 50's.

Len has a few different pieces which have a Britains look to them.

 

[mikemiller1955]

Both are lovely sets...the oxen are huge and very cool...

Hi Al

That explains it, unfortunately I have no record of Trophy/Under two flags sets.

Hey Guys,
I do not have many new additions to brag about, but here is one of them: HS5 Young Winston mint in original box! This was not an Ebay find but rather from "secret" location in rural Arkansas!! Any input on if this set is harder to find them some of the Sudan stuff? I have some other new Trophy sets I will be posting soon (also from rural Arkansas). It is always very exciting to find it the old fashion way!

Well done.
That set is a bit of a classic.
Toy soldier history.
Great find.
