Notes
A fine example in scarce matt white, with red plastic hubs, blue metal driver, matt baseplate. Late issue made between 1960-62 presented in the correct light yellow card picture box.
Obviously never played with, this model is in close to mint condition. One mark at the central fin and a few tiny marks besides.
None of the usual rubbing at raised body lines. Few near-microscopic dots on the driver’s head.
Correct paler yellow late issue box is clean and bright, complete with all end flaps – and no punctures! Minor wear only.
Not an easy variation to find!
