Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection ? always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
A pleasing, all original example finished in lustrous mid-green with with a cream roof, silver spun wheels (very bright). Original white tyres, with ‘M’ for Meccano embossed.
In impressive, unused all original condition.
Note the factory under spray at a window ledge. Hard to fault otherwise.
The bright and complete red and yellow box is really clean and fresh-looking. Crisp. Period price label on the box underside. Little tear emanating from an end flap.
