Notes
Issued between 1958-59 only. This scarce model has a vibrant red cab and chassis and a bright yellow back. Notably, all original condition. More commonly found with the ‘Bean Can’ transfers, this rarer version has the all-important ‘Sauce Bottle’ transfers complete on both sides:
Bright baseplate. Original grey tyres are well-shaped (minor wear to one). Couple of very light flat spots. The spare is still stowed on the base.
Occasional little mark to the original paint finish.
The* correctly-pictured Supertoy box with Sauce Bottle pictured* is bright and free of seam repairs.
Minor age/handling wear and a little scuff. One short lid end has a little storage scuffing too.
