GENERAL INFO

The brand-new model 69A Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow Coupé replaced the RW 69B Hatra Shovel in 1969 and started its career in a F2 box with black “Superfast”. The first variation, with ALP bottom lettering, shows the car on a racetrack on top, and displays the opening trunk on bottom.

It was followed by a second variation, this time with LPC bottom lettering, and the Superfast logo on both top and bottom. End flaps also have the NEW mention. Both versions have different end flap closers writings.

RARITY

Since only one box is available for this model, there is no rare variation, and the box is just as easy to find as the model is.
