Notes

Issued between 1952-54 only, before it was re-numbered. This eye-catching commercial truck has a bright red and yellow finish. Not an easy find in this condition with perfect “SHELL CHEMICALS LIMITED” lettering on both sides. Complete “SHELL” label at the rear. Very nearly complete 20mph sticker in place.

Hard to find a mark to the paint finish and closest scrutiny finds a few dot touch-ins. Original light grey tyres are well-shaped.
The deep blue box is brightly coloured, with a complete, bright and fresh paper label. Some ink has been applied at one side of the lid to disguise a light scuff at some time. Light wear.
