Notes
Rare to come to the market-place. This early issue from 1935-37, is finished in original deep maroon stone and black. High-line version with complete ‘OVALTINE’ lettering on one side, ‘BOVRIL’ on the other. Near complete delicate transfer at the rear for ‘BISTO’. Intact radiator and headlight assembly, happily free of the usual heavy tarnishing. ‘Mitcham’ destination front and rear with registration AYV 604. Wooden seating. Working clockwork function. Noteworthy that all four tyres have survived well.
The distinctive card box is a difficult find. Excellent and fresh colours to the MINIC roadway scene on both faces. Strong legible print on the sides. Note that one large end flap is missing and a replacement has been fashioned at some time, for the sake of completeness. Tape repair to the other large end flap and an internal end flap has a tape repair too.
