LETTERING AND NUMBERING

There were a vast number of sizes and colour options adopted by LMS during their operation. There is insufficient documentary evidence, in the way of colour images, to be specific in every usage and photographs that are available can be open to interpretation. We have produced the most commonly used variations and have included a product key for these. Please see the Lettering and Numbering Guide for reference Click here for colour options.
