Notes
This is the most difficult version to source (allowing for the South African issues of course), and was made towards the end of a long production run. This example is in very close to mint condition with a distinctive light blue original finish, deeper blue plastic wheels and the correct matte baseplate.
Few mere dots to the paint finish.
The correct later issue pale yellow card box is complete and vividly-coloured with the correct ‘blank’ spot at the end (not an over-sticker as was used with the earlier boxes, but imprinted on to the card). Few little stain spots and very minor wear.
