DGS42

Notes

A scarce and early Gift Set from Dinky with great nostalgic British appeal! A rare find in this close to pristine condition and prime investment material.
The set does not suffer from fatigue which is a particular problem with early models.
It comprises:
1) Dinky 42A Police Box in so close to mint condition – indeed the best example we have seen. Glossy original paint finish with bright and original silver details. Just a couple of tiny marks away from mint!

2) Dinky 42B Motorcycle Patrol in excellent original condition.

Sound, clean and bright, original condition with clean, undamaged, original, white, solid rubber wheels. Nearly always split, or at best very grubby, these are in exceptional condition! Light-moderate chipping to the motorcycle and a factory oversight: the deep blue paint finish has been only partially applied to the driver. Intact and sound throughout with no fatigue.

3)Dinky 42C Point Duty Policeman in a white coat. Very close to mint condition with a couple of small marks only. Another exceptional item!

4) Dinky 42D Point Duty Policeman in a blue uniform. Another glossy, as close to mint as you will see figure. All original detailing is bright and fresh. A delight!

Inner carded tray – is in pristine condition! Fresh, bright and clean with no tears at cut out slots and no loss of colour vibrancy. A wonderful London scene backdrop for these items.

Powder blue lift off lid box is very bright, fresh and clean with no graffiti or splits. Only minor rubbing at some edges and the occasional grubby mark. Again, in exceptional condition.

It will surely be a long time before we find another example in such fine condition. A set to marvel at and cherish!
