Notes
Issued between 1962-69, this is a superb example of this ABC TV Van attractively finished in a soft duck-egg blue and grey with a red waist band and silver detailed roof. Perfect lettering and logo throughout (most notably the lettering above the cab is complete – so often they are found rubbed due to box contact). 2nd issue with plastic wheels.
What a lovely display piece!
Onne dot above the windscreen but it seemed over-harsh to downgrade for that.
The original camera and operator are included and a length of cable although it is thinner wire that is usually found with this model.
The most attractive yellow picture box is very fresh and bright with vivid colours and no splits. One blemish to the card where an extra piece has adhered. Very minor shelf grubbiness on the box base underside.
We have not seen a better example!
