Notes
A charming tinplate model with a working clockwork function and of course, the wooden barrel load. Well-shaped smooth original tyres. Working motor.Looking extremely fresh and bright throughout!
Complete ‘WATNEYS’ lettering on the little tinplate roof sign and on the red barrel on the roof (complete with both end caps).
The wooden barrel shows minimal wear but note that the lettering ‘Watneys Red Barrel Ale’ at one end has either never been fully applied (more likely) or rubbed (hard to imagine the latter given the general condition).
Shiny radiator and headlight assembly. Red plastic wheels.
Very bright and complete card box. Looking very fine and clean, although there is a small puncture which has pressed back into place. With original Minic key.
With promotional concertina-style brochure.
