Notes
Issued between 1954-64 under this numbering, this Fork Lift Truck has a lustrous deep orange body, green forks and hubs. A rare find with green plastic wheels. Grey original tyres are well-shaped. Shiny baseplate. Late issue so correct that the winding handle cuff is grey plastic. No driver.
A few little exposed edge chips.
Lift-off lid picture box is very clean and bright. U.S. export Hudson F=Dobson label on the box base underside. Small areas of surface loss on a short lid end. Both upper and lower card packing pieces are included (little tear, couple of edge ruffles). Tarnishing to staples.
