Notes
Issued between 1952-54 only, before it was re-numbered. This eye-catching commercial truck has a bright red and yellow finish. Not an easy find in this virtually perfect condition with fine “SHELL CHEMICALS LIMITED” lettering on both sides. Complete “SHELL” label at the rear. Complete 20mph sticker in place.
Hard to find a mark to the notably all-original paint finish. Original light grey tyres are well-shaped.
The deep blue box is brightly coloured, with a complete, bright and fresh paper label. Small edge scuff. Light wear.
