Notes
This is the slightly later issue – made between 1961-69 with window glazing and a red-backed ‘Euclid’ logo at the sides. Such a fine Supertoy from Dinky’s heyday; surely every child from the mid 50’s-60’s remembers it well! Very difficult to find absolutely mint. The truck has a lovely bright yellow, all-original paint finish, perfect “Euclid” lettering, logo, and wording on both sides.
A few incidental marks only. Of course, there are the unavoidable marks underneath caused by the operation of the tipping mechanism. Mechanism for raising and lowering the tipper works well. Correct that this later issue would have a part metal, part plastic winding handle.
The striped Supertoys box is bright, fresh and clean. Minor age wear only.
