Notes
Issued between 1961-67, this fine Dinky commercial truck is in all original condition with a bright red cab, red plastic hubs and a fawn back.
Complete, delicate transfers on both cab sides (couple of small wrinkles to one). Tiny wear to the rear transfer doors.
The rear opening doors on these models are prone to damage. Happy to say that both doors open and close well.
Usual rubbing and wear at the point where the trailer attaches to the base of the tractor unit . A couple of small retouches on the front bumper (visible upon very close examination).
The striped Dinky Supertoys box (with large italicised/sloping print) is bright and complete with no splits and barely any wear. Colours are day-one fresh and that includes the portion of the deep blue lower half not covered by the lid.
Dinky stamp inside the lid dates this particular example from 1961.
