Thanks Ray,

Yes, it looks like another to add for the list. They appear to be part of a collecting set but would like more info to confirm if possible - did they come with a display medium?

The Danbury Mint and Texaco petrol items made up collecting sets so it it probable that these we manufactured as the same.
