I remember that Hamble brochure well as I received one in 1959 or '60 before I went to Hamble in 1960.
Good find !
I'm still undecided as to whether it's a pre-delivery BOAC -436 or a -320 touched up in BOAC livery. I've found another photo, presumably taken on the same sortie as the Hamble brochure photo, but this time in colour:

Note that, if it's genuine, it's flying pre-mod but with its G- registration.
What we need is an expert who can tell the difference between a JT3 and a Conway.
