Dinky Toys 922 Big Bedford Lorry
Big Bedford Lorry by Dinky Toys, No. 922. Very near mint/boxed (dual-numbered). Scarce version in mid-blue & yellow. From The Fenman Collection.
Notes
Issued during 1954 after its re-numbering from 522, this truck presents nicely with a vibrant mid-blue cab and chassis, deep yellow back and matching grooved wheels.
In all original condition (so many Dinky commercial models from this era aren’t!)
Very slight raised detail rubs in a couple of places.
Bright baseplate. Well-shaped original grey tyres.
For comparison only, please take a look at this mode in the foreground when placed alongside the version with the deeper orange-yellow back:
The striped picture box is complete, brightly-coloured and shows very slight wear only. Dual-numbered box marks the re-numbering from 522 in 1954.
