B139F
Britains 139F Fordson Major Tractor & Trailer Clockwork Set. Very, very near mint /boxed bright yellow paper label), with clockwork motor, original key, original tissue, card packing piece, Quality Control Slip, & Leaflet. Very rare. A sensational, unused set from a large stunning collection with many items in old shop stock condition.
Notes
A rare item from the respected Britains Company and only the second we have ever offered for sale. It is so exciting to find these early Britains models in such fine, completely unused and authentic condition.
This wonderful set comprises:
1) Fordson Major Tractor *in vibrant deep blue with burnt orange wheels, driver figure, supple original tyres. Note that this item contains comparatively delicate components – and has survived intact. Minor wear to the paint finish on the farmer’s trousers.
2) *Pale green and tan Trailer with black wheels and supple original tyres. Complete with intact tow pin and hitch. Clockwork motor works well!
Note the little area of rough casting at a wheel arch. All original card packing pieces and crumpled original paper tissue are still present (this includes both of the separate card packing pieces, and corrugated card). Original metal key.
So pleased to see that the original informative Leaflet is included too:
Even the Quality Control Slip is still present!
The vibrant and sturdy card box with lift-off lid is clean and vibrant, rarely handled with an intact bright yellow paper label with illustration.
A small fleck of surface loss and a small surface paper tear (storage) at one side.
