Notes
Fast disappearing from our British streets (and those that remain look less than inviting), these telephone boxes have a particular nostalgic appeal.
Six little gems that look smart in vivid red and silver finish – this ‘treasure box’ is a tempting addition to your collection.
Gives the impression of unsold old shop stock with barely a mark.
The bright yellow dual-numbered lift-off lid box is a fitting partner with very minor wear only. Traces of the original tape which kept the lid closed. Shopkeeper’s period price of 1/3 for each one is penned on the lid. Nice to see the original card dividers are still present!
A great piece of British and Dinky history from 1957!
