1a Road Roller

Post by johnboy »

The 1a in the middle here was in a little group of models on ebay and although it's playworn, I think it's the pale green version. I've not had one before, so could anyone confirm this for me? Thanks

The middle one is pale green, the one on the left looks like the yellowy-green version.

Nice one John, these are not common I feel and are great when displayed with the normal colour model. J

Here John are the normal Green, the Yellow Green, and the Light Green models.

A lot of collectors over look the Yellow Green model, on ebay or else where because of the pictures shown when taken with a camera.

Thanks for the great photo George. So many little gems can be hidden in poor pictures on ebay.
