D30E
Dinky 30E Breakdown Crane Lorry. Deep caramel issue. Excellent plus/never individually boxed. Scarce model from a lifelong collector in Devon.
Notes
A scarce and early model that would never have been individually boxed. Issued between 1947-48, this version is finished in a distinctive shade of deep caramel; an early post-war issue with no rear window, and ridged wheels. Smooth-running original black tyres.
Pleasing sheen to this example with original hook, sound tinplate jib and cast searchlight. Original silver trim.
A few marks to the paint finish, particularly at the front bumper.
