Notes
A wonderfully eye-catching tinplate double decker bus with crisp and colourful lithography throughout. Clockwork. Measures approx 26 cms. long. With H.M. The Queen Royal Warrant and crest on the underside.
Working clockwork motor.
Light wear only – as fine an example as you will reasonably find.
Lift-off lid was intended originally for the storage of biscuits.
Here is an image showing the interior of the bus once the lid has been removed:
Sturdy buff end flap style card box has deep blue lettering and image of the London Motor Bus. A few small punctures. Old tape applied. A few small ruffles/tears.
