Notes
Attractive all original early issue in silver with black smooth wheels, well-shaped herringbone tyres, white driver and Racing Number 4.
Issued 1936-38, with this clipped in tinplate baseplate which does not bear the name of the car.
As is so often the case with these early models, there is some crazing but no parts missing.
Light wear only to the paint finish.
These early racing cars would have been supplied from a shopkeepers trade box of six.
