Notes
Perhaps contrary to expectations, this is the first issue version with black plastic wheels. Later, metal wheels would be used.
This black plastic-wheeled version is in fine condition with complete crossed Union Jack flags on the nose.
In original condition throughout with a pleasing lustre. Close scrutiny reveals a few near inevitable marks on the nose, but crucially no rubs at high points of the model (couple of mere dots if you peer closely enough).
The long slim box is bright and clean. Minor handling wear includes a crease on a non-picture side. Little fleck of surface loss at an end flap.
