Would any of you explain why this 1937 reg’ Mammoth has three headlamps of three different sizes? The one below the bumper must be a fog lamp, but then what about the two other ones? Thanks.
I notice Whitbread seemed to object about recruiting middle-aged men!

Possibly built with only a nearside headlight and a fog light originally. Dipped beam only lit up the nearside headlight on London buses until the late 1960s. WW2 would have seen masked headlights so maybe this was removed or blanked off and an additional headlight fited on the o/s small enough for the masked shroud to be fitted. Post war the n/s may then have been reinstated.
