The second Lesney model of the Aveling Barford road roller replaced the earlier issue in the matchbox 1-75 series in 1956.
The new version was longer at 57mm in length and it was painted light green and it had red die cast metal rollers. It had gold trim to the towing hook and flat head axles with crimped ends.
The only variation was found on the driver which can be found painted in either light or dark brown. There were no casting or colour variations and the model was only in production for two years so it is not very easy to find. It was replaced by the 1c Aveling Barford road roller which was a scaled up version of the same vehicle.
The 1b road roller was packaged in ‘B’ type boxes and there are no rare variations. Budgie toys made an almost identical road roller which can be mistaken for this model but the Budgie version did not have a hook and the rear rollers had eight small studs cast into the sides.

Box type ‘F’ is the last of the ‘Regular Wheel’ boxes before the shift to ‘Superfast’ and was only used for two years 1969 & 1970.
All models in the range can be found in this style box with the exception of the following models :
20c : Chevrolet Taxi
30c : Faun Crane
35b : Snow Trac
69b : Hatra Tractor Shovel
The difference in the variations is on the placement of the word ‘Series’. It is worth noting that there are known to be many very minor variations of the ‘F’ style box that are not listed here.
In 1970 some of the ”Transitional” models were released in F2 style boxes that had the inclusion of the new ”Superfast” logo added to them

Box type ‘E’ can be found in use from 1964 onwards and with the similar model image as the type ‘D’ boxes. The major difference for this new type design was the position of the word ”Matchbox” it was now above the word ”Series” and not next to it as it was in the past.
The side tabs again were the point of difference between the variations on this box type.
