D289
Dinky 289 Routemaster Bus 289 "Tern Shirts". Mint (never removed from box)/in scarce export box. From a large stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
A superb, unused example of this early issue Routemaster bus, with both a driver and a conductor, spun hubs and beautiful, detailed transfers. Note the little bend to one of the upper deck window frames (casting).
How unusual to see this Routemaster bus in the export walk-through box!
A card and cellophane box which is so easily damaged – this one has a notably intact original cellophane! Card is bright, clean and fresh. Model is still affixed to the card base by means of the two yellow plastic tabs. MInor handling wear only .
Very few bus collectors have this Routemaster bus in this box presentation!
