D983

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 1958-63 and comprises Dinky Supertoys 984 and 985, this is a most impressive set for your collection in all original condition. This two-part set has such a vivid bright shining finish, and extremely bright metal parts throughout. Obviously never played with or indeed handled very much at all.
In as-new state:

Both items have a few negligible marks. Really as fine a set as you could ever hope to find.
The “DINKY AUTO SERVICE” lettering is perfect on both sides of both models. The top deck of the car carrier can be raised and lowered by turning the handle at the side – this works well. Eight Dinky cars can be accommodated on the carrier and trailer. What a great display piece in your collection!
The very large pictorial box is a fitting partner. Such a large card box nearly always sustains wear at corners etc. – this example has a small edge ‘bruise’ and a little minor wear besides. Small area of surface loss at a lid side. Notably, it comes complete with a large inner card packing piece, three thicker card wedges (original) which secure the items in place and a small card piece too. All original.

Instruction Leaflet is included.
The largest Dinky item in close to pristine condition!
