Notes

This classic early Foden truck has a fine rich brown finish, with a silver flash and black chassis, black original herringbone tyres. Correct that this early issue has no tow hook.

D501w9221

Base is complete and bright with spare wheel affixed.

D501w9222

Issued between 1947-48.
Upon close scrutiny, you will see a few little marks on the cab roof and a couple of light strokes of expertly matched paint at a cab corner edge and on one side of the cab near the wheel arch. Really hard to notice!.
Nice lustre throughout and bright metal parts.
The early buff with a paper label (heavily sunfaded) is intact with no splits or tears.
These early Foden models are becoming increasingly hard to find.
