Ok, here's what I've got. Info courtesy of Ryan and James.
William was originally green (this pic is black and white) and a slightly lower spec version of Charles, with plastic tubes. It didn't last very long before being replaced with Charles. Ryan is going to post some brochure scans when he can.
Watch this space. | ||

Bx.Bx, Benson, Nationwide etc were supplied especially to various cleaning or cleaning supply companies with their own company branding on. | ||

That early George looks brilliant! Would love an early toolkit like that too I worked with a Bernie before, pre dates on the serial vintage, with a toolkit a quarter of her age but puured along nicely Then I got told off as I'd nicked it from the external cleaners cupboard rather than our department 2006 Henry so had to stop. Wish I'd 'rescued' her now when I quit! | ||

At the carboots like last year or early 2013, I saw a numatic, it was blue like charles, but had a bigger bucket, and no face, it was also called "OCS" | ||
