Notes
Issued toward the ed of the production run (1954-66), )this particular example has a fresh, gleaming pale yellow paint finish and comes complete with the later issue blue plastic driver. Matte base and plastic front wheels.
A nicely-constructed toy; the driver can be made to swivel with his seat, and the dumper tips. Tow hook. No sunfading. Bright baseplate. These dumper trucks are so often found with many chips. This model has a few little marks covered by the tipping section and the occasional tiny mark besides.
The late issue yellow picture box is brightly-coloured and complete with no splits or tears. Storage ‘bruise’ on one side of the lid. Shiny staples.
Card packing piece and Quality Control Label are included.
