17A Emergency Pattern a bit nicer

Hear is my very original 17A emergency pattern fuse

It still retains its rubber band around the outer clock case

and the sealing band below the fuse cap.

apart from a little bit of corrosion on the fuse cap it is

quite straight and tidy.

The person i got this from had the fuse for over 30 years

and tells me it was recovered locally to me somewhere in Essex

from an air base.
