Notes
Issued between 1963-70, this fine Dinky Supertoys model is in original condition. This model has a bright white and yellow cab and body, grey chassis, and grey plastic hubs.
So often, the white plastic tank becomes discoloured and yellowed over time – happy to say that this example is a very bright and fresh white colour.
Complete with tow hook and spare wheel still affixed to the bright baseplate.
All “SHELL” and “B.P.” labels are complete on both sides, clean and intact, (small crease to one):
and rear of tanker:
Just a few negligible marks away from mint and a little factory paint run at the driver’s window which can be carefully removed before putting on display.
The distinctive pictorial lift-off lid box is complete and intact with no splits or repairs. A little stain at one end of the lid and a shopkeeper’s price is clearly visible at one side of the lid. Minor rubbing and a small crumple.
