Barely a mark to the all original paint finish.
The model was sold in this lift-off lid plain white box. We have not seen this style of box presentation before for this model and it simply has ‘SOLIDO M’ penned on the underside. Residue from a price label or similar on one side of the lid. We are not sure if this box was simply provided by the shop owner at the time. Light wear.
