Notes
Issued during 1963 with a type 3 Leyland grille, this classic Dinky bus with spun wheels is a difficult version to find. This example presents well with a lustrous original deep green and cream paint finish, treaded tyres. Virtually complete lettering on both sides (as-made ‘speckling’ in places).
Couple of negligible (probably as-made marks to the paint.
The correct lighter yellow pictorial box is crisp and complete with all end flaps. Correct colour spot for this version. Small tear.
