Notes
This model with the early numbering has a pleasing soft light blue original paint finish with deeper blue ridged wheels. Quite different from the later sky blue version. Bright baseplate, smooth running original tyres. 40J on base.
In very close to mint condition.
A few ‘bloomed’ spots mostly on the roof
The early 40J box is bright and complete, if a touch grubby now. 50195 printed on both box faces. Minor corner crumple. Period price at an end flap.
