D420
Dinky 420 Forward Control Lorry. Near mint plus/boxed. Mid-green issue with red wheels. Correct box. 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.
This classic Dinky Lorry has such a lustrous mid-green paint finish. Red hubs, bright baseplate and axles. Smooth, original tyres run well.
One small chip on the underside of the petrol tanker and a couple of small rust spots on the tow hook.
The card box is complete, crisp and brightly-coloured, with the correct colour spot. A little ruffling and creasing and a faintly pencilled price is just about visible at an end flap. Couple of little indentations on one edge (storage).
