I think the obvious direction for you to look is to Belgium and some of the ex -
Minerva dealers.  There are lots of them around although they would not be quite
as early as 1950, more 1952-53.  It is also possible in the UK to source NOS
blocks still though I have no idea of the price. If you want some names and
numbers for Belgian dealers then ask me, but you might be better to look for a
seller who was not a dealer.
