Notes

Issued between 1959-61 with a type 3 Leyland grille, this classic Dinky bus presents so well with a lustrous original red and cream paint finish, red cast wheels and well-shaped, smooth tyres. Virtually complete – complete lettering on both sides – (DUNLOP lettering is in upright print). Note the addition of the roof box on this slightly later issue.
