D282
Dinky 282 Duple Roadmaster Coach. Very near mint/boxed. Red version. From a beautiful, single-owner collection, some 25 years in the making.
Notes
This collector wanted only the best examples in his collection – always a discerning buyer of the finest examples he could find. After over 25 years, he has now decided to part with items from his own extensive collection.
This is one of them.
Issued between 1954-60, this model has a fine sheen to the original bright deep red finish with silver coach lines notably unrubbed. Matching red ridged wheels. Bright base and axles. Smooth original tyres.
Original smooth tyres run well.
Small area of rough casting on the roof edge. Tiny box rubbing to the radiator.
The pictorial card box is crisp and clean with such bright colours and no tears. Crisp feel to the card. Carefully handled. Correct colour spot. Light stain at one end. Pencilled price at an end flap. Small fleck of surface loss.
