Notes
A fresh, original example – this issue has plastic blue sliding doors at both ends (feature of later issues) and in the middle. Shaped spun hubs and supple original tyres are as-new. Comes with the both “POLAR BEARS” transfer and “LIONS” transfer applied. Both pairs of original bears and lions are present. One of the amber skylights has minor rubbing but certainly no cracks or splits in either.
In very near mint condition with the occasional small mark only.
Unusual end flap picture box* is complete and very brightly coloured, showing minor wear only. Very crisp and fresh-looking. Couple of pinprick punctures.
