Notes
We are delighted to offer for sale this rare promotional Vanwall model!
This promotional issue is an extremely difficult version to find. Tony Vandervell built the Vanwall Racing Car, driven by Stirling Moss. A very small quantity were produced with racing number 20 and printed Vandervell Products Ltd. information on the base.
Racing green finish, lemon-yellow seat, driver figure (correct detailed version for this issue). Blue-tinted screen. Flat spun wheels.
Minor mark or two to the paint finish (mostly at the nose). Little nick to one of the racing numbers. Well-shaped treaded tyres. A little surface crazing to one and a couple of very minor part-splits to another.
Blue picture box is a crisp example with strong colours on intact, fresh card. Plenty of end flap spring. Minimal wear.
