D253
Dinky 253 Daimler Ambulance. Near mint plus/boxed. Scarce. Very fresh box. From The BST Collection.
Notes
A more difficult find – in our experience, the cream or matt white version comes up for sale more often.
This version has a gloss white finish, red cast hubs and window glazing. Shiny base and well-shaped treaded tyres.
Just one partial thickness chip on one side of the roof and the occasional dot on this most unforgiving of colours.
The correct later (lighter yellow) picture box is a very fine example with resistant end flaps showing that this box has received minimal handling.
Issued between 1960-62.
