Notes
Issued between 1965-69, this Breakdown Truck is finished in vibrant deep red, cream interior, shiny concave wheels, grey winch wheel, black plastic hook, spare tyre stowed behind the cab. Roof light. Window glazing. Smooth-running original radial tyres look as-new.
Obviously never played with, this model is in very close to mint condition. Just a couple of very minor marks only.
These relatively frail card boxes rarely fare well. This example is better than most; brightly-coloured, clean and fresh-looking, and complete with the serrated tab. Very minor handling wear includes a light corner crumple. Faintly pencilled period price on an end flap.
Rare to find with the little Instruction Slip!
