Complete with spare wheel stowed underneath. Virtually complete delicate ‘Shackleton’ transfer.
Occasional little mark and a little repair has been made to the axle end of one of the front wheels.
Especially difficult to find with its distinctive sturdy colourful card box. With two pieces of original card packing too. A little rusting at staples and light wear.
