Notes
This classic Dinky commercial model was issued during 1955 (Dinky stamp on the inside of the box lid). A wonderfully fresh and lustrous example with an original deep yellow paint finish with black wings and red hubs. Early issue without window glazing.
A most eye-catching display piece.
A few minor marks at the occasional exposed edge and one little factory re-touch at the top edge of the trailer. Little paint run nearby. Bright base and fine original tyres.
The colourful yellow picture box looks really fresh and clean. Tiny wear and a penned initial on the lid. Note that this model comes with the original card packing piece too. Box base underside reveals the U.S. export label (Hudson Dobson).
