Notes
Issued between 1954-61, this model is in very close to perfect condition, with such a shining light tan finish and dark brown side panels, fawn ridged hubs and a bright baseplate with large print and 344 stamped.
Couple of very minor marks only.
The box is an unusual version with ‘Plymouth’ printed as well as one picture face showing red-panelled never issued variant (see lead picture).
Correct colour spot at the end flaps.
Bright and clean with quite a crisp feel, although one small end flap is missing now. Tear to two of the smaller end flaps. Shopkeeper’s price is pencilled on one box face.
