I would like to stand corrected in my reputing the REEVES mark in Bruno's sabre as a spurious one, judging by the 'Birmingham' odd initial system.
Having just spotted another example with precisely the same marking system and with the assumption that this was a Reeves export to Portugal (AE marks and all), my doubts have vanished. Despite clear evidence that Toledan Ballesteros also exported this model to Portugal, one would hardly accept that this was the case of the unit posted by this thread author.
