1950s Standard Companion.
Late Companions featured the styling of the Pennant saloon - a revised version of the Standard 10 but arguably less appealing than the earlier car's frontal treatment.

The Standard photograph above wasn't taken by me, but by G. King, and is shown on oldclassiccar with his permission. His photos were taken at various locations a few years ago, including photos of classic Standards such as the Companion shown above. From what I can tell, some of the cars and vans featured were seen at shows (eg at the NEC and Alexandra Palace in London), whereas others were spotted out and about in daily use, or parked up at the side of the road. If you own the Standard shown here, or know the story of this particular Companion, by all means get in touch. I'd be interested in showing similar photos of other Companions too, so if you can help please drop me a line.
More of the photos in this particular collection can be seen on the general Classic Car Photographs page. Other picture collections, featuring similar Standards, are available to view in the main car photos section.
