Notes
Superb quality from this collection, this ’POOL" Petrol Tanker has barely seen the light of day:
In very close to mint, unused condition, with POOL transfers intact on both sides and at the rear of the well-shaped tank. Petrol was in short supply during and just post-war. Cooperation between the suppliers meant that rationed petrol stocks were ‘pooled’, so no one brand was highlighted at tanker sides.
Glossy finish and a working motor. Shiny radiator and headlight assembly.
As fine as you could wish!
The distinctive buff card box with red print card box is complete and bright showing light wear. Minor little tape repair to the inside surface of one end flap.
With (faint) ‘P’ for POOL stamped on an end flap.
