Notes
This is the scarce 1st issue version (1935-41) in the powder blue lift-off lid box and ‘PRATTS’ lettering on the Oil Bin.
This five piece set comprises:
1) 49a Bowser Petrol Pump, in green. Near mint, although understandably the rubber hose has perished ( original hook and remains of rubber hose included).
2) 49b Wayne Petrol Pump in turquoise, excellent with ‘blooming’ to the paint finish. Rubber hose has perished ( original hook and remains of rubber hose included).
3) 49c Theo Petrol Pump, in rich violet blue. Few chips, and understandably the rubber hose has perished (original hook and remains of rubber hose included).
4) 49d Shell Petrol Pump, in red. Excellent plus. Some chipping at edges. Rubber hose has perished ( original hook and remains of rubber hose included).
5) 49e ’PRATTS" Oil Bin, in in deep yellow, with fine lettering. Excellent plus with some edge chips.
Lift-off lid box has retained its vibrancy and has no seam splits or repairs. Light marking and edge rubbing. Three compass point piercings in the lid. Pencilled writing in one corner of the lid. Complete with a very nice card insert into which each item slots. Minor wear and tear only.
