    This is the Matchbox Kingsize Merryweather Fire Engine. It was originally released in 1964 and lasted into the Superkings era when it got mag wheels and had a metalflake paint job.
    I am thinking this box came from 1967 as in 1968 the interiors had a plain blue background. The earliest boxes were all cardboard with no window thus 1967 could be 1966.
    As can be seen it has an extending ladder which rotates 360 degrees.

      Thank you very much Brunswick. Lesney was a combination of their names which you probably know.
      I have another hundred or so boxed Matchbox to post.
