Dinky 409
Dinky 409 Bedford Articulated Lorry. Very near mint, with window glazing/boxed, with original card packing piece. Dated 1961. Very fine box! From a collector in Northampton.
Notes
This classic Dinky commercial model was issued during 1961 (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. Issue with window glazing.
A most eye-catching display piece.
Couple of very small marks to the paint finish. Bright base well-shaped, treaded original tyres (although one has some surface cracks – still runs well). Note the rough casting in one small area on one door.Very small area of underspray on the other ( but as-made).
The colourful yellow and violet blue picture box is really bright, clean and fresh-looking! Looks very close to shop-fresh! Tiny fleck of surface loss at one short lid end. Note that this model comes with the original card packing piece too.
