In all original condition with two hydraulic working rams and an unfaded finish.
Occasional tiny mark to the paint finish.
The attractive yellow picture box has bright colours on intact glossy card. Note that this version has a yellow base (more usually found with a deep blue base). A little penned writing on the underside.
Very minor wear. Card packing piece is included.
Period addition – Foden Brochure is a nice touch! 20 pages. Light wear and a couple of tiny tears.
