THE LONDON DMS

by Matthew Wharmby

Published by Pen & Sword Transport. 1st. 2016

Very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. Villified as the great failure of all London Transport bus classes, the DMS family of Daimler Fleetline was more like an unlucky victim of straitened times... Large format. Black cloth boards, silver title to spine. Colour & a few b/w photos. 272 pages.

Light rubbing to lower board edges, base of spine and lower rear edge knocked. Light creasing to top of prelims. Else a nice copy. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly scuffed and lightly faded to spine.
