Another remarkable find from this Estate Sale in the U.S.
In crisp and fresh white finish with an unmarked silver trim and Red Cross emblems cast on both sides. Opening rear doors. Smooth domed silver cast wheels and well-shaped original black tyres with a fine tread. Lights detail.Silver base is correct with no maker , simply ‘MADE IN ENGLAND’ cast.
Model measures 110 mm. From 1956. Later this model would be issued as Budgie No. 258.
Barely a mark to this most unforgiving of paint finishes.
The colourful and distinctive card box is a treat in this condition. Clean and fresh-looking with day-one vibrant colours on barely handled card Little age/handling wear includes two tiny tears to an end flap edge.
