Dinky Toys 420 Forward Control Lorry
Forward Control Lorry by Dinky Toys, No. 420. Scarce issue in red with green wheels. TREADED tyres. Very near mint/boxed. From The Reference Collection.
Price: £185.00
Notes
Not an easy variation to find, this Dinky Lorry has a wonderfully vibrant red paint finish and scarce green ridged wheels. Issued toward the end of the production run with treaded tyres (1956-61).
Bright baseplate. Barely a mark on the vibrant, original, high gloss finish. Little extra smudge of paint at the front of the roof on one side (perhaps factory).
The card box continues the very close to shop-fresh theme with day one bright crisp colours on fresh, crisp card. Correct colour spot. Tiny edge scuff and a minute start of an internal end flap tear.
