Casting #29

[kerbside]

29a Bedford Delivery Van, issued 1956, length 57mm, box type B.
29b Austin A55 Cambridge, issued 1961, length 68mm, box types C and D.
29c Fire Pumper Truck, issued 1966, length 76mm, box types E and F.


Quite a difference in colours.









The three wheel type I found the GPW model the hardest to find, also notice the two different type "C" boxes.





With and with-out the Denver Decal.

Gavin, did you note George's two types of c box. One showed the two tone model as it was produced. I see you box shows a two tone model but it's only one colour. I wonder if originally the model was going to be two toned or if it's just a colour miss print on the box and they just decided to let it go?

Hi Steve.
If I'm not mistaken I think Georges pair of 29b C boxes are from different suppliers hence the different illustrations, Note the font of the 'No29' on the front of each of the boxes.

Wouldn't mind finding a nice boxed 29b gpw sometime.
