Notes
It has been a long tine since we have offered this rare version for sale!
This is the 1st type cab version finished in violet blue with a paler blue back, matching hubs and flash. Small hook. No tank slits or chain post bosses. Radial tyres (well-shaped). Presents well with a gleaming paint finish.
A few chips and close scrutiny finds a few later touch-ins.
The buff box with a paper label has excellent, strong clean colours. 1st type is pictured. Blue colour stamp at a short lid end. Period price nearby. Light wear and rust staining near staples.
An extremely scarce Foden.
