Notes
From one of the largest, private collections we have ever seen, with many items bought new at the time and stored away until now. Taken as a whole, the collection provides an exciting, kaleidoscopic snapshot of popular diecast toys issued during the 1960?s -1970?s.
A very pleasing example of this Commer 5 Ton Lorry with a deep metallic blue cab and chassis, and a silver-grey back. Flat spun hubs. This model has a fine original lustre and a nice bright baseplate with spare wheel affixed to the base.
Looks very fresh and completely unused:
If you really want to fault it, you could note the little box rub at the centre of the front bumper and the few little dots on the flatbed.
A difficult find in the plain temporary blue and yellow card box with stamped ends. Complete, clean and brightly-coloured. Occasional light crease, light wear and some leaching of the black pint at the stamped ends.
