Notes
Made between 1952-54, this is the 2nd type cab version with no flash at cab sides. In violet blue finish with a paler blue back and matching hubs. Presents very nicely with a fresh and gleaming paint finish, and minor marking only to the paint finish.

Black radial tyres are well-shaped. Supertoy hubs.
Unfaded deep blue box has a complete paper label (note the repaired split at both short lid ends). Light wear.
A difficult find.
