Notes
A glossy chocolate brown and cream Railway Delivery Van ‘GWR’ with complete GWR EXPRESS CARTAGE SERVICE transfers on both sides. Delightful period paper advertisements at the sides too: ‘Tri-ang Pedal Motors’ & ‘Fit Bits Educational Toys’. Complete ‘GWR’ lettering above the cab and and virtually complete (notably) on the rear doors. Complete lettering on the bonnet sides too. Measures approx. 14 cms.
Shiny radiator, headlight and bumper (tiniest tarnishing visible only to the most uncharitable eye). Shiny wheels and smooth, black, well-shaped original tyres . Tiny marking to the original finish.
With original key. Working clockwork motor.
Nice to see that the colourful card box is present and complete. With GWR stamp on the large end flaps. Tear (repaired) to one large end flap seam. Stain and light wear.
