The Hand of Ulster! Anybody know the Irish connection?

Yes your Rudge is the later version and your paintwork is in much better condition. Looks totally restorable with those transfers in such good condition, must have been well stored/looked after. Wish you well in bringing it back to life. presumably it has the Sturmey Archer AM 3 Speed with Alloy Shell.
