D255
Dinky 255 Ford Zodiac Police Car. Near mint plus/boxed with packing ring. From a large, stunning diverse collection with many items in old shop stock condition
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.
Issued between 1967-71, this fine Zodiac Police car has jewelled front and rear lights, opening doors, bonnet and boot. Complete Police labels on roof and doors. Suspension, chrome plating and intact number plates front and rear. Small plastic roof aerial is notably in place too (albeit rather bent now). Vivid red interior, policeman.
Occasional tiny mark and a couple of minor bumper plating rubs (visible only after minute scrutiny!). Original fine tread tyres are well-shaped.
The clean and colourful card box is complete, feeling crisp. Tear to the tuck in part of one large end flap, and a tiny tear to the other. Little rubbing/minor storage crumple besides. Period price label at an end flap. Packing ring is included.
