BBC TV Extending Mast Vehicle by Dinky Toys, No. 969. Very near mint/boxed. With Quality Control Tag, upper & lower packing pieces & detachable dish. From The South London Collection.
Notes
A sought-after model from the Dinky range of BBC vehicles made between 1959-64. A deep lustrous shade of green with a pale grey stripe and complete detailed decals on both sides. Grey ridged wheels and well-shaped black treaded tyres. Shiny base.
So often the detachable dish goes astray – nice to see this one is still present. Shiny winding handle and that includes the cuffs.
Couple of minor marks to the paint finish.
The box presents well with vibrant colours on clean, intact card. Tarnishing to staples.
No leaflet. However, both packing pieces (one incomplete) & Dinky Quality Control Tag are included.
