The image file limits have been reset. Upper limits now are 100,000 when we have some images that exceed 5,000,000. I've set the pixels for no more than 1000 across the longest side, so if you resize to that all should be well. (The limits are larger than what I typically use, and my images turn out just fine, so I know it shouldn't be a problem)
Thank you for your understanding.

Right chuffed to have scored this little jewel recently - even if the trailer got lost along the road somewhere. The Ford C-series trucks were well represented in the miniature world in the mid to late 1960s. Maybe that's why it just looks right today. Extra points if anyone knows what trailer came with it, and what model number it is. Maybe it was a stand-alone piece. Who Knows?

I've never been able to track down a casting number for the cab alone. From what I can tell, I think this truck cab as well as the copy of the Majorette Bernard cab which preceded it were numbered as pairs with the different types of trailers that they were released with. Then again, these trailers were also released with other truck cabs that had their own casting numbers, so I could very well be incorrect. The early trailers are numbered from 1381-1385 according to an old package in my collection, so perhaps the Ford cab is number 1380? Just one of the mysteries that makes Yatming so interesting to collect!
