I'm no expert on these, the Potteries had one main bus company, Potteries Motor Traction, and many small independents some of whom bought strange and wonderful buses from all over the place, some of which were new when purchased which is unusual. The white stripe suggests PMT, and the bus is probably a Leyland Tiger which was the favoured saloon of the time. The rear view may be PMT again, but no idea what it is.
