I used to have a Raven Mignon which was remarkably similar to this. Mine was the Standard model unfortunately; had it been the De Luxe it would have had interior furniture!
Made on Croydon Airport near to the Trojan factory? |

I guess so, tho' it is 30 years since mine went to a good home. I was given it by one of our dustmen who had it from new. he told me that you could buy them with or without interior furniture. Mine was without, and no evidence of any having ever been fitted. You used camp beds!
The name Bruno Jablowski springs to my mind in connection with Raven. Could anyone explain why? |
