Dinky 514 Guy Van "SPRATTS". Near mint plus/boxed. With complete dog logo & lettering on both sides. From The Reigate Collection.
Notes
Issued between 1954-56, this Dinky Guy Advertising Van has an original and unfaded red and cream paint finish with complete eye-catching transfers on both sides with the letters forming the shape of a dog. The smooth original tyres are well-shaped.
A wonderful display piece, made during Dinky’s heyday:
A few little touch-ins to the red paint finish (visible under close inspection).
The deep blue box with picture label is complete and bright, showing light wear. Rusty staples.
