Notes

One of the trio of t.v./broadcasting vehicles made between 1959-65.
This B.B.C. truck is in all original condition with a deep green and pale grey finish. This model comes complete with the detachable aerial (often they seem to go astray). Camera man on the roof swivels. This version has creamy-yellow BBC lettering (unrubbed) on the camera. Perfect detailed crest transfers on both sides of the van.
