Notes
Issued between 1962-68, this off-white ambulance has a longer red side stripe at the sides and a pale blue interior. Complete with stretcher and patient, both seated figures, intact delicate roof beacon and siren. ‘Ambulance’ window sign is intact on both sides (clear glass). Note that one transfer has been (factory) applied at an angle. Suspension on bright shaped spun wheels. Fine tread as-new tyres. Matte baseplate. Opening rear door.
Barely a mark, although minute scrutiny reveals a tiny touch of additional paint on the roof which covers a small edge mark on one side of the roof.
This pictorial card box is complete, although grubby now. Pen graffiti at an end flap. Minor handling wear besides.
