Notes
This is the later “shark nose” version (yellow triangle at the front) which was issued for just one year only in 1964. In all original condition throuout:
Under close inspection, you will see a small mark (maybe a pencil mark) near the triangle on the nose, and a couple of stray dots of factory yellow paint. Racing numbers are fine and complete. Usual little mark on the driver’s head. Original ‘M’ embossed grey tyres have slightly yellowed over time. The rare yellow plastic wheels are intact throughout. Baseplate is very bright. Couple of tiny marks head-on and a very faint rub at the rear point.
The vivid yellow picture box is complete, crisp, and bright with all end flaps intact. Minor age wear/grubbiness only. Shopkeeper’s pencilled period price at an end flap.
