PYE 'V4' Money Box

Next : Pye CS17 Money Box
NOTES This is one of several money boxes from Pye which I assume were promotional items.

The unique styling makes it easy to identify the real life television on which this money box was based - the model V4 , released during February 1953, or the later I.T.V.-capable VT4 released in April 1954. Although the VT4 wasn't the first ITV-capable TV, it was amongst the first so I wonder if this money box was released to coincide with the real VT4 ?
CURRENT STATE Sound ... but that striped front is a real bugger to clean.
WHERE FOUND Fleabay for £12.50 (incl. postage).
