Notes

A scarce find.
This Underslung Heavy Duty Lorry with Driver in military green was made 1940-41.
An impressive model that has spent most of the past 80 or so years safely tucked away in its sturdy box with packing and (probably original) old wrapping paper.
Virtually mint- and surely one of the finest examples you will ever see.
