Notes
Such a scarce 1st type issue (1947-48) in this colour, with its rear axle located in tin clips, and no triangular lugs at side of the number plate. It has a lustrous brown cab and chassis, mid-green back and wheels. Small hook. Bolt fixing and baseplate are shiny. Silver trim. Complete with spare wheel.
Smooth original tyres run well.
Occasional little wheel arch mark and closest inspection finds a few little retouches to the green paint.
The blue box with a complete paper label is clean and complete. Intact paper label has a little rubbing in one area. No splits. Light age/handling wear includes some shelf rubbing to the underside.
