Notes
This version with unpierced detailing at the beam beneath the logs, was issued towards the end of the production run (1959-71). Deep orange cab, yellow back with metal spindles and realistic log load! Concave, metal yellow painted wheels.
Fine, well-shaped original tyres and that includes the spare. Very bright metal parts.
In all original condition throughout.
A few minor marks mostly at cab sides.
The striped Supertoys box is very clean, fresh and bright! Small end crumple. Lovely vibrant colours and looking close to shop-fresh. Minimal wear only. No splits or graffiti.
‘Meccano Controle’ stamp on the inside of the box lid.
Harder to find than the standard pierced trailer version.
