Notes
A very fine example, the Rear Tipping Wagon was issued between 1954-64 in various colour finishes. This version has a mid-blue cab and chassis, pale grey back, blue cast wheels. With a most pleasing lustre to the paint finish, this truck has rarely been out of its crisp, bright, lighter yellow picture box.
Metal parts (baseplate, axles ends) are bright. Smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
Small paint blemish on a front wing (as-made). Mere dot or two to the paint finish.
The crisp, complete, lighter yellow picture box has a small seam tear. Period price is pencilled at an end flap.
