Notes
This early Dinky Routemaster Bus displays well – with all the nice details not present in the later issues. Complete transfers and labels throughout. Note the paper labels front and rear have been reversed. First we have seen. Model is in very near mint conditin with barley a mark. Shiny spun wheels, conductor and driver. Ribbed roof.Fine tread original tyres are well-shaped.
Occasional tiny mark to the paint finish and note that the axle ends are rather tarnished now.
The colourful picture box is very bright and complete. Minor age wear and grubbiness. Period pencilled prices.
