Notes
This is the first issue (later version had Shell Chemicals at the sides). Finished in bright, unfaded red and yellow, and virtually perfect “SHELL CHEMICALS LIMITED” lettering on both sides (tiny casting mark on one of the letters). Very nice and complete ‘Shell’ label at rear too!
Few negligible rubs/small marks visible under minute scrutiny.
Correct early box (note the print of DINKY SUPERTOYS on the lid – later issues had italicised print).) Minor wear only and a little ‘helpful’ handwritten note on the lid!
