Hi!

As a PS to the above, these styles of lettering were (and still are!) used by the railways as well - have a look at the signal number-plates in this pic of Banbury Station taken after the recent resignalling just over a month ago - you'll see the similarity between the "Wireless World" style letters/numbers in Picture 4 above and the font NR uses for it's signal-post numbers and speed indicator signage!
