D293
Dinky 293 Leyland Atlantean Bus 'BP'. Near mint/ boxed. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
A bright and fresh green and cream finish on this Atlantean bus with complete ‘Corporation Transport’ lettering and logo on both sides. Complete ‘BP is the key to better motoring’ on both sides, too.
Small nick in the green background of the transfer on one side (probably as-made). Little casting mark on the roof. Couple of negligible marks to the paint finish may be seen, if sought.
The pictorial box is extremely crisp, bright and clean, complete with all end flaps. Small storage crumple and a little tear. No graffiti.
Gives the impression of old shop stock.
