Hi
Can anyone please help with the possible I.d of this black leather head rest it came with a label Whitley? And faintly written HE 270 but beyond that I haven't a clue.
Including frame it measures approximately 8 inches x 7 inches.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

If anyone has a parts list for the Whitley they should be able to identify it from the part number although the inspectors stamp may have covered the first letter.

Thank you for your replies, I looked into the HE270 route but couldn't find any images along with the aircraft serial number but as yet nothing there either, as far as the Whitney is concerned I'm thinking this is more likely especially with the inspection stamp and number as it could possibly point towards Armstrong Whitney, the image that Madura kindly posted kind of resembles the back of the rest as it curves very similar, ideally as MiTasol suggested if someone had a part list for Whitley then this could possibly help with its identity.
