Notes
A rare find. This Double-Decker Bus has a glossy red finish, with upper deck surround in cream. Very nearly complete-complete ‘BOVRIL’ advertisements at the sides, complete ‘Tri-ang’ transfer at the rear. ‘Mitcham’ destination with registration LBL 174. Virtually complete-complete – complete ‘LONDON TRANSPORT’ lettering at the sides.
Working clockwork function. Wooden seating. Cast wheels. Smooth original black tyres are well-shaped. Shiny radiator and headlight assembly generally.
Small (probably factory assembly) scuff near the radiator and a negligible mark or two besides.
Most unusual box presentation. This lift-off lid box comes in pale blue with decorative, colourful details and a complete paper label on the lid. A little age wear includes expected rubbing at edges etc.
Very nice – and so scarce!
