| ![]() Must apologise for a computing error. Pradyumna Mallick did'nt have 34 Rolls Royces; only ten of his 34 cars were Rolls Royces. I saw a picture of the cars lined up in a Bengali magazine called Desh published by the Ananda Bazar Patrika group who also own the Telegraph of Calcutta. The picture was published in the 1970s. Anyone with connections with the Ananda Bazar people could have a try at extracting that and similar pictures from their archives. |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Travancore As the car was up against the garage wall this is the best I could manage. Hope it helps. Would be interesting to see pictures of the scale models you are making. Perhaps a thread showcasing your handiwork? The Jodhpur continental ![]() |

I am looking! Chassis 3BU198 is a 1936/7 Phantom III. "History of Windovers" lists it as a Sedanca de Ville - original owner Rajpipla | |
