Complete with spare wheel stowed underneath. Clockwork function works. Fine, detailed transfer is virtually complete. Barely a mark to the paint finish.
Especially difficult to find with its distinctive sturdy colourful card box. Some wear as you might expect (rubbing, grubbiness and marking).
Original tools and key.
