Notes
A wonderfully evocative period display piece and a perfect component for a Minic display from this period!
From the mid -late 1950’s comes this Tri-ang Minic "A " Garage which comprises a two storey building composed of hardboard, wood and plastic, with curved clear plastic sections (windows) and attractively detailed cream ‘brick’ paper covering to the middle section with a complete ‘advertisement’ for Minic cars & lorries.
There are windows on one side and these are curved. Intact and complete. Roof parking. Bright chrome details. Inside there are 2 ramps.
Sadly, the Garage has lost its sign but it does still have the often missing detachable front section (forecourt).
Note that the windows are a little warped (common fault). Light wear besides.
The original box is still present too although it has some age and handling wear with a couple of subtle repairs.
A perfect period backdrop for a display of Minic model cars and lorries from this period.
