Notes

We are agents for a large lifetime Dinky collection. Some items were purchased directly from toy shops during the 1960s. He would travel to toyshops in the search for any old or out-of date stock, since scarcely anyone collected in those early days. Many were bought or swapped at early swapmeet/toyfairs. Quite a few of the unboxed models were taken straight from trade boxes. An interesting and varied collection that has been amassed over some 30 or so years.

A delightful example of a scarce Guy Van. This sought-after van has a lustrous red paint finish throughout and perfect, highly decorative transfers on one side, very nearly so on the other.

Upon careful scrutiny, there is some slight sunfading head-on (minor), a small nick in the letter ‘L’ of ‘Golden’ on one side, and just one or two negligible pin prick marks to the paint finish. Two very small additions of red paint at either side of the front number plate.

The box is complete and intact, with bright colours.

The Dinky factory stamp on the inside of the box lid is clearly visible and dates it 1957.
There is a little minor edge wear to the box and a small crumple at one corner. Very small split at one corner.
A beautiful addition to your Dinky collection!
