D501
Dinky 501 Foden Diesel 8 Wheel Wagon. Near mint/boxed. Scarce 2nd type issue. Two-tone blue version. From The Watford Collection.
Notes
Made between 1952-54, this is the 2nd type cab version with no flash at cab sides. In violet blue finish with a paler blue back and matching hubs. Presents very nicely with an exceptionally fresh and gleaming paint finish, and barely any marks at all.
Grey radial tyres and Supertoy hubs. Spare tyre underneath has a split. Upon close inspection, one may find a few retouches at a cab wheel arch and a few small wheel arch retouches besides. Bright clean baseplate and the clean, well-shaped tyres run well.
Bright fresh deep blue box with a vivid paper label. Showing minimal handling wear only and small nick to one end corner of the paper label.
A difficult find.
