Here we have a boxed 1968 LEGO Semi-Trailer Truck that has never been opened and is complete with its original cellophane still intact.
Despite the box's age, it has excellent colour and a decent structure.
I have had this item closely examined by a collectible toy professional at the Action Figure Authority (AFA), where it has been verified as being original and authentic.
AFA graded this item by taking any flaws into consideration from where they duly rated it overall as an average AFA 80 which is a near mint standard.
Given its age and rarity, this is an otherwise fantastic example despite any minor flaws of wear and tear to the box which were factors in preventing this item from attaining a higher grade.
This is the oldest item that I have ever had graded and the only one of its kind to have ever been submitted to AFA.
Thank you for reading.

This is unbelievable! I've been a LEGO freak since I was a really young kid (6?) and now I'm 31 - bought my kid a set of SpongeBob LEGOs yesterday!
