Notes
This is the scarce late issue Dinky Supertoy model from the construction range. Complete and looking barely used, functioning well with hoisting, jib raising and slewing movements. Still strung with its original string, and the correct late issue, blue plastic familiar driver is in place. Hard to find version with a silver jib. Matte black base and correct that this late issue with yellow plastic wheels has a *plastic winding cuff *. Light grey original radial tyres have no flat spots and run well. . Excellent ‘Coles’ label to rear with complete black and white chevron detail.
Closest inspection reveals a couple of very small dabs of paint at the rear top edge. Hard to fault otherwise!
The large striped Supertoys box is complete with both packing pieces and Dinky Quality Control Label.
Box is bright with a little of the usual edge rubbing. Minor wear besides. No punctures . Period pencilled price at one lid end.
