Notes
Issued between 1954-59 in various colour finishes, and this particular version is not an easy find! This Austin Devon model has a shining mid-green and at least a couple of shades darker than suede green, with fawn wheels. Presents well with a pleasing lustre and fine original silver trim. Smooth-running, as-new original tyres. Bright baseplate (minor ‘spidering’) with large print and ‘DEVON’ cast into the underside of the roof.
Small blemish on the roof. Extra flick of silver to highlight boot detail and rear lights have been added.
The strongly-coloured box is complete with no tears. Correct colour spot. Minor handling wear and a little pencilled number on the top surface.
