Moko Lesney Matchbox Original Empty B2 Box for 42a Bedford Evening News Van MINT

Description: Original type B2 Matchbox by Moko Lesney box for the 42a Bedford Model CA Evening News Van, the 42a model for which was first issued in 1957 and deleted in 1964. This box is likely produced sometime in late 1956. These early B2 type boxes were produced for Moko Lesney by either Pembroke Abbey or Bowater Scott printers (no logo on these tabs) for only a relatively brief time and are coveted by collectors, especially in this pristine condition. For an excellent box type guide, see the Rockertron Toys website (UK) and click on Matchbox box types; Vintage Lesney On-Line at www.act.qc.com/VLO/index.htm or check your Matchbox reference publication.
