1:87 Esso Bedford Truck (251-2) is an exceptionally old and rare LEGO set. It has not been available online or in retail stores in good/new condition for over 2 years. Due to its rarity, the estimated value in sealed condition of $257.32 may understate its true worth, assuming one can even be found for sale. Since this set was released in 1956, finding it sealed and well-preserved is exceptionally difficult—making complete sets with intact boxes museum-grade collectibles.

There are currently no new/sealed listings available for 1:87 Esso Bedford Truck at this time.

Insights

Released in the late 1950s and now retired, the 1:87 Esso Bedford Truck (set 251) draws interest from both HO-scale and petroliana collectors because of its Esso-printed livery, and scarce boxed survivors and fragile materials have left market depth thin and prices sensitive to condition.
