He said: 'It was bought by my grandparents for the coronation — they watched it with all other family in the street on the day.
'My dad inherited it and just kept it in the loft, garage and shed, covered over with cloths. My dad died eight years ago and I have had it ever since.
For years I've been thinking I really ought to get it out and do something with it.
'As it was bought for the coronation, I just thought the funeral is the perfect time to get it out and show it off to the residents.'
