Notes
Issued between 1954-57, this truck has a red cab and chassis, greyish-brown or earth back, grooved red Supertoy hubs. An outstanding lustre to the paint finish throughout and a superb close to pristine Supertoys box make this an exquisite display piece.
Hard to find a mark, although on close scrutiny, some wheel arches have been given an extra flick of well-matched paint.
The fawn back has none of the usual rubs at raised details or chipping at the top edges and the vivid red cab is virtually mint! Bright axles and base, with spare wheel stowed.
As-new original radial tyres.
This model comes with an extremely clean, fresh and bright ‘Supertoys’ box with Hudson Dobson export label attached. A virtually pristine box like this is a very difficult find. Gives the impression of unsold, old shop stock.
