Occasioanl little mark at a raised detail/exposed edge and the expected couple of little marks on the roof support where the ladder rests (often found with more marks than this).
The colourfully illustrated card box is strongly-coloured, clean and complete, with the French Dinky Factory Control Stamp on the inside of the box lid. Colours are day-one bright throughout including the box base. Traces of the old tape which kept the lid closed, and a very small area of surface loss at a lid end.
