Notes
Harder to find 2nd issue in orange and black, this Coles Hydra Truck has one side and one rear handle.
Bright fresh ‘Coles’ and chevron labels (little edge creasing to the chevrol label). Looks unused. In very close to mint condition.

The colourful end flap card box is especially prone to wear given the weight of this truck. This example has light wear and a thin strip of surface loss on an end flap. Tiny wear besides.
