Notes
An early issue from 1953-54, since it has its rear axle located in cast lugs, and no triangular lugs at side of the number plate. This truck has a bright and distinctive french blue cab and chassis,(more usual finish is violet blue) red back, lighter blue grooved hubs. Large painted hook.
A light peppering of very tiny pin prick marks on the cab roof, a few little chips at the edge of the bed behind the cab roof, and several discreet touch-ins at exposed edges and on the flat bed.
Complete with spare wheel.
The early powder blue box is complete and bright with an intact paper label, free of tears and graffiti.
No splits. Some of the usual rubbing and wear, particularly at one corner. A little rusting at the staples.
