Notes
A fine example in scarce matt white, with red plastic hubs, blue metal driver, matt baseplate. Late issue made between 1960-62 presented in the correct light yellow card picture box.
Obviously never played with, this model has nonetheless a little light speckling to the blue paint finish of the driver (probably as-made).
None of the usual rubbing at raised body lines or on the driver’s head.
Correct paler yellow late issue box is complete, clean and bright, although one small end flap has been re-attached. Minor puncture caused by the driver’s head has pressed back into place.
Not an easy variation to find!
