Notes
This Willeme Log Carrier Truck is finished in vibrant orange and deep yellow. Note the pierced detailing of the beam beneath the logs (later issues unpierced), so an early issue. Also, note the cast cab wheels, later issues would have concave wheels. Couple of negligible marks and a little super-detailing in silver near the rear wheels. Complete with the* full log load and the four metal pins*. Spare wheel.
The Supertoys box is clean and fresh, if very slightly sun-faded on the lid. The deep blue box base is vibrantly-coloured. Very small storage crush to the box base at an edge. Quality Control stamp on the inside of the box lid. No graffiti.
