Matchbox Models of Yesteryear Y37 1929 Garrett Steam Wagon 'Chubb's Safe Deposits'

This item is a die-cast model of a 1929 Garrett Steam Wagon, part of the 'Models of Yesteryear' series, specifically model Y37. It is depicted in the livery of 'Chubb's Safe Deposits'. The model is predominantly light blue for the main body/cargo area and a darker blue or black for the chassis and cab roof, with lighter green wheels. The 'CHUBB'S SAFE DEPOSITS.' text is prominently displayed on the side of the cargo compartment in white, with a decorative flourish beneath 'CHUBB'S'. The cab features small windows and some painted details, including what appears to be 'No 5' on the side and 'THOMAS TAPES LONDON' in smaller text below it. The overall construction suggests a standard die-cast model, likely made of metal with some plastic components for details like windows or interior elements, if any are present. The model appears to be in excellent condition, still housed within its original display packaging, which is a clear plastic shell over a red cardboard base. The packaging itself shows the 'MODELS OF YESTERYEAR' logo in gold lettering on a red background. There are no visible signs of wear, damage, or repairs on the model itself, indicating it is well-preserved and possibly unused. The quality indicators point to a collectible-grade toy model, likely from the late 20th century, given the styling and packaging typical of Matchbox 'Models of Yesteryear' series. The attention to detail for the period-specific vehicle and company branding showcases good craftsmanship for a mass-produced collectible.
