Notes
A fine Dinky Supertoy from Dinky’s heyday; surely every child from the mid 50’s-60’s remembers it well!
Very difficult to find absolutely mint, this example is close to mint. A lovely bright yellow paint finish, this is an early issue with an all metal winding handle. Complete “Euclid” lettering, logo, and wording on both sides. This example has none of the usual rubbing on the raised ‘ribs’ of the tipper or at the sides. Mechanism for raising and lowering the tipper works well. One little dot on the roof (so fared better than most!) and a few little dabs of yellow at the edges of the tipper sides (hard to see).
The striped Supertoy box is bright and fresh with no splits at the sides. Minor age wear only. Complete with upper card packing piece.
