Notes
One of the trio of t.v./broadcasting vehicles made between 1959-65.
This B.B.C. truck presents well with a lustrous deep green and pale grey finish. This BBC TV Roving Eye model comes complete with the detachable aerial (often they seem to go astray!). Camera man on the roof swivels. More unusual issue with black BBC lettering on the camera. Delicate detailed crest transfers are complete on both sides of the van.
In all original, close to mint condition. A few tiny marks to the paint finish.
Complete, bright box has minor wear. Rusty staples. Card packing piece has a little scribble.
