D998
Dinky 998 Bristol Britannia Airliner. Early issue. Near mint plus/boxed, with packing piece. From The Canadian Collection.
Notes
This fine aircraft was made between 1959-64 and has a bright silver, blue and white finish.
Tinplate propellors are finished in red, and ‘Canadian Pacific’ lettering is perfect on both sides. The fine transfer detail at the sides (which nearly always flakes off!) is complete on one side, tiny nick on the other.Presents well with just a couple of minor marks and a small, light scuff on the silver finish. Fortunately, the white paint is clean and bright – so often found discoloured.
The striped Supertoys lidded pictorial box is very attractive. Bright and clean silky colours on sturdy card. A little puncture caused by the model at one side. Nice to see that the internal packing piece is still present.
