D440a2712

Fine, unblemished, unrubbed transfers at the sides and at the rear. How rare it is to find the silver domes unrubbed! Bright baseplate.
Just a few very minor marks and a couple of stray (factory) flicks of silver near a headlight and on the bonnet/ at the rear.
The box is verystrongly-coloured on crisp, rarely handled card. Scuff at an end flap at the period hand-written price.
Not an easy variation to find.
