SG, I have an unused one from about 1975 lurking in the small remains of my stuff. I'll have a look tomorrow, it would do for now.
Scholar and a gentleman! Sending PM now.

Early type dynohub could be worth more than the bike? possibly in the US.
It was a Sturmey Archer GH12 Mark II model (1936-1938), just listed it on ebay out of curiosity! ;)
I've put a spare stainless steel raleigh rimmed wheel (from a long dead mid 1950's roadster) in the front of the bike and I've almost finished cleaning and degreasing it. Got the paint for it's "blitz black" treatment too.
 
This one is 12 volt, 0.23 amp, 2.7 watt also. Listed it for 7 days, starting at 10pm 'ish this eve, so fingers crossed! Cheers for the tip.

The bike should look ok when it's done to, we'll see!?
 
M, this is a real museum piece, I can remember seeing one only when I was selling and repairing Raleigh etc. in the 1950's.
We should soon see if it's collectable.
Keith
