Dinky Toys 502 Foden Flat Truck
Foden Flat Truck by Dinky Toys, No. 502. Rare SECOND TYPE issue in French blue & red. Near mint plus/boxed. One of the rarest commercials from The Reference Collection of fine Dinky Toys.
Notes
This is an especially difficult second type Foden to source. In beautiful all original condition, this commercial Dinky model has a distinctive French blue and deep red finish with lighter blue ridged Supertoy wheels. Only the second example we have seen in many years.
Issued during 1952. Correct with no flash at cab sides. Large painted hook. Tanker slits on the underside as well as chain post bosses. 20 (miles per hour) transfer in place.
This is a worthy addition to any serious Dinky commercial collection, particularly bearing in mind its scarcity.
Occasional small mark at vulnerable points as you might expect.
The blue Supertoys box with a paper label is bright and complete with no splits or graffiti. Shiny staples. Light wear/edge scuff.
