Notes
A classic Supertoy from the heyday of Dinky and part of the desirable range of advertising vans made during the period 1950-61.
This ‘Ever Ready’ Guy Van is in all original condition with a lustrous mid-blue finish and very near perfect-perfect transfers on both sides.
Shiny metal parts including the spare wheel fixing.
Little scratch to the white background of the transfer on one side. Occasional tiny dot only to the wonderful vivid and lustrous original paint finish. Well-shaped original tyres.
The box is complete and fresh-looking, with glowing colours and no repairs. Staples are a little tarnished now. Little shelf rubbing to the underside of the box base. Dated 1955 from the Dinky stamp inside the box lid.
