Dinky 424
Dinky 424 Commer Convertible Articulated Truck. Very near mint/boxed. Scarce. Unusual green card box. From The Cumbrian Collection.
Notes
Issued 1963-66. A scarce item from Dinky. The Commer Prime Mover has a gleaming primrose yellow and silver finish with blue plastic hubs and window glazing. Spare wheel is still stowed. Shiny base.
Two chips at the back of the tractor unit which are not really visible once the trailer is attached.
The silver trailer looks fresh – in very close to mint condition.
There are a choice of two covers: blue plastic canopy or stake fittings.
Both intact, complete and can be firmly slotted in place.
This box has an excellent inner.
Minor marking caused by the models and a very small slot tear.
All items are housed in a distinctive, sturdy presentation-style box, unusual in light green.
The stand up part of the lid has never been pushed out for display, so suggesting that this item has barely been used and never on display. Just a little residue of the old tape since the box was originally taped shut. Very small area of surface loss due to tape removal.
Light age/handling wear.
