Notes
Early example (first issued during 1958) with flat spun hubs and ‘ERF’ cast in to the radiator. Tipping back mechanism works fine! Window glazing.
Displays well.
Occasional little mark ( at a wheel arch for example) and the steel rod beneath the tipper is rather tarnished now.
Correct early powder blue pictorial box is complete if rather grubby now. Period pencilled price at an end flap. Minor wear. Comes complete with the promotional colour booklet:
