Notes
A fine gleaming example of this model which has a distinctive grey-blue finish with mid-blue wheels and black treaded tyres.
Baseplate is a little tarnished now. Lovely sheen to the original paint finish however – just one small area where the paint is thin on the bonnet. Tiny rub or two at a raised body line.
The attractive picture box looks close to shop-fresh, with clean bright colours and crisp end flaps. Correct colour spot. Shopkeeper’s pencilled price at an end flap.
A very nice example indeed.
