Notes

Issued during 1938.

The few that remain from this early period generally have substantial wear and due to the instability of the alloys used at the time, they are often found heavily-fatigued with chunks missing. Under close scrutiny, one can see a little minor surface crazing – nothing more. Some paint loss as you might expect for a model of this age and a few very small light scratches on the top surface near the gliding hole.
The powder blue lift-off lid card box is bright and intact, showing minor age/handling wear at edges etc. Remains of a period price label or similar on the underside.
Original Instruction Leaflet is included:
