Notes
Issued between 1955-62, this is a fine and bright petrol pumps set.
You may find the occasional little chip to the paint finish. Yellow plastic hoses are complete. ‘ESSO’ and ESSO EXTRA’ letters are complete. Few little transfer edge nibbles.
Close inspection reveals a couple of extra dabs of white paint at the top of one of the pumps. Hard to say whether factory or later.
Colourful, clean and bright plain card box has resistant end flaps and a crisp feel. Intact card sleeve, too.
