Notes
Issued between 1952-54 only, before it was re-numbered. This eye-catching commercial truck has a bright red and yellow finish. Not an easy find in this very close to perfect condition with fine “SHELL CHEMICALS LIMITED” lettering on both sides. Complete “SHELL” label at the rear. Complete 20mph sticker in place.
Original light grey treaded tyres have a little age-discolouration now. Small dab of red paint low down head-on and a very subtle stroke of red paint on a wheel arch (need magnification to see).
The violet blue box is complete with an intact paper label. Light wear includes light surface rubbing to the paper label.
