D340
Dinky 340 Land-Rover. Green version. 1st issue in green, with cast wheels. Very near mint/boxed. From The Reference Collection.
Notes
A lovely, unplayed-with example of this popular Dinky model issued between 1954-56. Intact and in original condition throughout, complete with driver, tinplate screen and spare tyre.
None of the usual chip at front and rear bumpers and untarnished screen. Original grey treaded tyres are pliant and have retained their original colour well( often they can become rather yellowed and brittle).
Few negligible marks visible to the uncharitable eye.
Bright baseplate.
The box is complete, crisp and brightly-coloured. Carefully handed and stored. Correct colour spot. Minor grubbiness. Period price is neatly pencilled at an end flap.
