Notes
With an original gleaming red and grey finish, this model is a must for your collection. Issued between 1958-63. Perfect lettering on both sides.
Just a couple of little chips and the occasional little mark on this large trailer (approx. 23cms or 9 inches including the metal tow bar which is shiny!). Attach this to the Car Transporter – and you can see why this is the largest Dinky set made! Both pieces together can accommodate eight Dinky vehicles (four on the trailer on its own). What a display that would make!
The striped Supertoys box is very clean, bright and complete. No splits or graffiti. Only the most minor wear.
Dinky stamp inside the lid dates this particular example from 1961.
Nice to see the Instruction Leaflet is still present:
Complete with both upper and lower card packing pieces which have sustained the near-inevitable couple of tears, due to the weight of this model.
