Notes
Issued for a short period during 1954, this version in orange & deep yellow with yellow wheels is such a rare find. Released in limited numbers, this is the first that we have ever offered for sale in this colour finish.
Original grey tyres (well-shaped) including the spare still stowed.
The baseplate is tarnished now however.
Occasional little mark to the paint finish and note that rear light detail has been added (may be possible to carefully remove).
The early deep blue card box with a paper label is complete and bright. A little of the usual wear and grubbiness. Period price is pencilled at a lid end.
One could wait years to find another example!
