Notes
Rare to come to the market-place. This early issue from 1936, is finished in original deep & mid-green. Virtually complete ‘BOVRIL’ lettering on both sides. Complete delicate transfer at the rear for ‘BISTO’. Intact radiator and headlight assembly. ‘Mitcham THE CRICKETERS’ destination at the front and ‘MITCHAM’ destination at the rear with registration AYV 604. Wooden seating (one loose). Working clockwork function. Noteworthy that all four white tyres have survived well, with minor wear only.
Occasional minor mark to the paint finish.
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. Light handling wear and lacks an internal end flap. Note the old shop label on both sides.
With original Minic Key.
