Notes
This original Dinky Shopkeeper’s Trade Box contains just one Dinky 31D Trojan Van ’OXO’*. Finished in original deep lustrous blue with lighter blue cast wheels and complete ‘Beefy OXO’ lettering at the sides. This classic Dinky van with trademark ‘Beefy Oxo’ transfers on both sides makes a great display piece – especially sitting atop the Dinky Trade Box which comes complete (notably) with all original card dividers.
Hard to find a mark to the paint finish.
Bright baseplate and well-shaped smooth original tyres.
Of course, these early versions (later re-numbered 453) would never have been boxed individually, but given out from the shopkeeper’s trade box of six, supplied by Dinky.
This Trade Box is complete and has no repairs. Light wear and period penned price on one side of the lid has been scribbled over.]Nice to see the original card dividers:
