Notes
Only the second example we have seen of this rare transition issue finished in a vibrant and all original orange and pale grey with green tinplate shutters, black radiator and headlight assembly, red cast wheels, glossy black baseplate, window glazing.
In virtually mint condition!. Bright shiny winding handle works well.
Usually, this model is found with green plastic shutters, silver radiator and headlight assembly and red plastic wheels (in itself a difficult find!).
The lighter yellow card box is bright with quite a crisp feel. Not eht esmall fleck of surface loss on an end flap and light wear (includes a few very small end flap tears). No punctures.
An exceptional item – the only other example at QDT was sold back in 2008!
