Notes
Issued between 1949-54 in various colour finishes, this version has a bright violet blue and deep orange-yellow with red ridged Supertoy wheels. An eye-catching, lustre to the original paint finish. Bright baseplate and fine original tyres too:
With none of the usual chipping at the yellow stake back – just a small mark on the cab roof cab roof and a little rubbing at a wheel arch.
The sheen throughout shows that this truck has been very carefully handled and stored – the paint has lost none of its lustre.
The early deep blue box with a picture label is vividly-coloured and complete. Compete and bright paper label. Original inked price at a lid end. Minor wear besides. Hudson Dobson U.S. export label on one lid side.
Issued between 1949-54.
