D512
Dinky 512 Guy Flat Truck. First issue. Khaki and black. Very scarce! In Royal Blue card box. Near mint plus/boxed. From the large private European Collection.
Notes
A fine, all original 1st issue example made between 1947-48 in this rare khaki and black finish with green wheels. No triangular lugs next to the number plate, early ridged wheels, and rear axle fixed by tin clips. Small unpainted hook.
A very scarce example in all original condition.
Just the occasional minute mark to the paint finish which barely detracts. A little paint loss at the front ‘number plate’. Small dulled area on the baseplate.
Presented in a deep Royal Blue early box with a complete paper label (minor grubbiness, and light wear). No splits or graffiti. Light scratch on one side of the lid.
Issued during 1947.
