THIS IS ONE OF MANY MODELS AND HOUSEHOLD ITEMS BEING AUCTIONED THIS WEEK. VINTAGE MATCHBOX/LESNEY MODEL IN USED CONDITION. VERY UNUSUAL AND DIFFERENT. THIS STAINLESS STEEL ASHTRAY FORMED PART OF THE HERITAGE SERIES LAUNCHED IN THE SEVENTIES UTILISING EVERYDAY PRACTICAL ITEMS AND COMBINING THEM WITH CARS FROM THE MODEL OF YESTERYEAR RANGE. THE MAJORITY OF ASHTRAYS I HAVE FOUND HAVE BEEN CERAMIC AND MADE BY WADE USUALLY HAVING EITHER A GOLD OR SILVER PLATED MODELS OF YESTERYEAR MOUNTED ON IT. BUT WHAT MAKES THIS ASHTRY SO DIFFERENT FROM THE REST IS THE MODEL WITH ITS METALLIC RUBY COLOURED WINGS AND RUNNING BOARDS. WHETHER IT WAS ORDERED SPECIALLY AND IS A ONE OFF I 'M NOT SURE. IT IS THE FIRST ONE I HAVE SEEN. ALL LOOKS TOTALLY ORIGINAL. THE MODEL IS SHOWING SIGNS OF WEAR. THE ASHTRAY MEASURES 7 X 5.5 INCHES AND HAS AGE RELATED WEAR. SORRY NO BUY IT NOW - AUCTION ONLY OVERVIEW: NEVER COME ACROSS A COLOURED MOUNTED MOY IN THE HERITAGE SERIES, THIS BEING THE FIRST. IT IS DIFFERENT, UNUSUAL AND POSSIBLY UNIQUE. CAN ALSO BE UTILISED FOR OTHER USES. GOOD LUCK . NO RESERVE . POSTAGE COST IS FOR THE U.K. ONLY. OVERSEA BIDDERS PLEASE CONTACT ME FOR SHIPPING COSTS. I THANK YOU FOR CHECKING OUT THIS ITEM. PLEASE CHECK OUT MY OTHER ITEMS FOR SALE - U JUST NEVER KNOW WHAT U MIGHT FIND. PLEASE NOTE : BECAUSE OF THE RECENT POSTAGE INCREASE read more
