Notes
First issued during 1956, this coach has a deepest blue paint finish with a white roof. ‘BRITISH OVERSEAS AIRWAYS CORPORATION’ lettering is notably perfect on both sides (nearly always found a little rubbed). The BOAC lettering in yellow as well as the distinctive gold Speedbird emblem is complete and intact. Shiny base has one small tarnished area. Smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
The occasional very small mark.
The picture box is bright and complete. Crisp feel. Minor wear and note a pinhole puncture.
