Notes
An extremely rare variation to find with the period printed label on the PTT promotional box.
This is the ‘Swiss Postal’ version of the Vega Major Coach with a vivid all original deep yellow and cream finish with complete paper labels at both sides (note the minor smudge to the letter ‘T’ on one side – caused during application, we surmise). A more difficult find with this light blue seating too. Orange indicator lights.
Occasional small rub to some of the raised points on the roof, as you might expect (from box contact).
The promotional card box is clean, bright and complete, with no graffiti. Small tear and a little handling/age wear.
