Thats a Badger cap I reckon, so I reckon its a Badger, but its got to be at least 30 years old hasn't it?
Nice brush, where'd you get it from?

Thanks for the replies chaps,
I can not find one like it, I have viewed almost everywhere  (everywhere I would find it )

Alex,  I aquired it locally, Hmm, Local over here is within 50 miles. France [86]

and added it to my box (s) for use later¿
This is my first double action airbrush so I am not conversant with differances in the bits,  Ken

Ah Haa,
found it, it is a Badger 150 made in 1960's
Thanks to all for the guidance, and Dino at Badger who gave me early 150. a search gave the game away,

for anyone of that persuasion [no not that one] vintage airbrush information is here
