Notes
1st type issue, made between 1948-52. Shining two-tone blue paint finish with a light blue flash and fine tread radial tyres (well-shaped). Presents well retaining a fine lustre to the vibrant two-tone finish:
Well-shaped tinplate tank.
Minor marking to the paint. Close inspection finds an extra flick of silver to the front bumper and note the spare wheel rivet has been silvered too. Rear top edge of tank has a flick of later paint too.
The bright green card picture box has a very nearly complete paper label. Minor wear, including a small part-puncture.
