Reference Number: Avaluer:6995676 | Vintage/ Collectable: Collectable/ Vintage |
Sub-Type: England | Country/Region of Manufacture: United Kingdom |
Product Type: Heavyweight Teams |
Note: Ref 6 also used for Watford and Oxford United.
This particular team comes in the larger version of the box (215mm x 93mm x 30mm) which allows us to date the team to 1976 or thereabouts. The box is in good condition with just light shelf wear, including a partial tear to one corner of the lid, but no other tears or major damage and minimal discolouration, with little or no fading, so colour remain bright.
I'm not an expert on Subbuteo, so I am uncertain how to grade condition, but the players appear to be generally in reasonable order, but one has a detached foot, which has been reglued (See Photo). Otherwise, players, including the goal keeper remain firmly attached to their bases and for the most part they are mounted level in their slots. However, some players appear to be sightly out of alignment, so one side stands very slightly proud of the base (see photos), but I am sure this is how they were made. There is also evidence of glue to the slots, but I think this is merely residue from the original manufacturing process, so is only mentioned for the sake of complete accuracy. Players have numbers on their backs (See Photos).
Colours are consistant across all players, including their bases and there is little evidence of use or wear. The players were obviously handpainted and therefore there are minor variations, but nothing that would indicate that any have been repainted or touched in; however, please see photos to confirm.
As mentioned above, I am not an expert on Subbuteo, so photographs form a very important part of my description and bidders are advised to study them carefully and to contact me for any additional information they may need.This item will be sent by Tracked Delivery within the UK or Airmail Small Packets (International Signed For) if going overseas.CUSTOMER SERVICEWe take customer satisfaction very seriously and always strive to provde a Five Star service.
