TCM played the 1941 "Sullivan's Travels".tonight.Ten minutes into the film they show what looks like a Pickwick coach with a modern stylized front drivers compartment. I will leave the exact model number to our 'Pickwick' experts who know the DNA....Enjoy.

It's a 1933 Yellow "Nite Coach". This was apparently a co-op effort between Pickwick and Yellow Coach with Yellow developing the drive train.
Here is a link to a photo.

And a link to the scene from the movie.
