Notes
What a wonderful sight! This is the original Dinky Trade Pack which enclosed all six promotional ’Job’s Dairy Vans’ in their original boxes! Inside all 6 boxed models are still present enclosed within their individual very close to pristine – pristine card boxes.
Six from only 1176 promotional models made during 1960. Beautiful cream paint finish and complete ’Job’s Dairy’ transfers front and back, complete in most cases. Occasional (factory) mark to the paint finish. It must be stressed that this is not a later ‘made-up’ set of vans – these are the originals and are each contained in vibrant crisp unfaded boxes (correct plain N.C.B. boxes). Each box has the correct colour spot at one end. Just a small corner crumple to one.
An exceptional item!
The outer carton is complete, clean, fresh and bright. Traces of the original sellotape used to close the carton, and barely any storage wear.
A very scarce find and a shrewd investment piece. A sensational Dinky display item – old shop stock Dinky models in their original packing are especially prized.
