Notes
This Albion model is in gleaming bright original condition in orange, with a blue and yellow rotating drum. An attractive item, the cement mixer rotates as the truck moves along. The mixer can also be tipped up in order to discharge its cement load down the delivery chute. Original, well-shaped, grey radial tyres (including the spare) are fine. Bright metal parts throughout and that includes axle ends! Gloss base.
Paint flake at a wheel arch and a small mark at the lower edge of another wheel arch.
This is the most difficult of the box versions to find; late issue in an end flap pictorial box. Colours are bright and these comparatively flimsy boxes nearly always suffer damage since the contents are heavy! Tears to the tuck-in parts of the large end flaps. Minor wear/creasing besides. Puncture has pressed back into place. Not an easy box variation to find.
