Complete with an intact ladder and manhole covers.
Shiny base and original treaded tyres.
Paint finish is fine and all original – couple of little marks only.
The striped ‘Supertoys’ (italicised print) box is complete, clean and bright. Complete and bright U.S. Hudson Dobson export label on the box base underside.
