B is for Bijou Little Canoe

Except it's Beeju and it's a small-scale, not 'little'! I was hoping to find the other one, but I've already buried it again, so it will have to be seen another day, surface to say it's powder-blue and red if memory serves, which it usually does, but not always; it might be mint green, or even another yellow one!

Picked this up from Adrian at the recent Sandown Park toy fair, and it's a little peach, I'm pretty sure the aforementioned 'storage' one is lacking the oar, or has a rather truncated one hanging on at the glue-points like a cross-bar!

Full set of marks for EVB/Beeju some of who's 'planes, lorries/trucks and civilian vehicles we've seen here at SSW in the past. Hull is plain red, deck is plain yellow and sandwiched between the two . . .

. . . is a marbled layer of the two colours mixed to make an orangey Native American and his load, which consists of a slightly relief-carved bundle of provisions, two piles of furs, a tomahawk and the hint of a rifle under the other cargo - to keep it dry of course!
